Historical Costume Tour with Jan Wellem through Düsseldorf's Old Town
Travel back in time with Elector Jan Wellem and experience Düsseldorf's Old Town from the perspective of one of its most important historical contemporaries.
On this exclusive costume tour, you will immerse yourself in the world of the 17th century and discover the Old Town from a completely new perspective. You will accompany Jan Wellem on his tour of the city and listen to his anecdotes, interesting facts and background stories from the past and present. You will learn more about the life and work of Jan Wellem, who made Düsseldorf one of the most important art and cultural metropolises in Europe.
The tour will start in the historic city centre at the tourist information office.

Along the way, you will admire the most important highlights of the Old Town, such as the Lambertus Church or the castle tower.
