Basilika St. Lambertus
St. Lambertus rises beside Düsseldorf's riverfront Altstadt, its visibly twisted church spire making the basilica easy to pick out. It is close to Burgplatz.
Why go
The bent spire is the reason to look up even if the church is closed, while the building's position explains why it belongs in a short Burgplatz and riverfront circuit. Confirm current access if you want to see the interior rather than just its silhouette.
What to look for
The distinctive twisted spire.
The church's relationship to Burgplatz and the Rhine.
Useful to know
Check parish visiting times for entry and keep services undisturbed.
