Location
Solingen is a picturesque German city in the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The city is known worldwide as a manufacturer of high quality blades, knives and other cutting tools. On March 19, 2012, Solingen even received the official name "Solingen – the city of blades".
The city was founded in 1067 and is proud of its glorious past. The downtown of Solingen was completely destroyed by air attacks in 1944, so Burg Castle is the main place for excursions to pre-war sights. The castle houses a museum dedicated to the history of the Berg family. Here one can see ancient knightly weapons and get acquainted with the life of peasants and artisans who lived in Solingen at different times.
The most popular museums in the city include the Industrial Museum and the German Blade Museum. Another favorite place for tourists and locals is the Müngsten Bridge, the highest railway bridge in Germany (107 meters). Tourists are also happy to go for walks in a beautiful landscape park, which is located on the slopes of the Wupper River gorge. The historic centers of Grefrath and Burg will delight their guests with beautiful views and half-timbered houses in the so-called "Bergisch style".
After sightseeing in Solingen, guests of the city usually go to cozy cafes and restaurants where they can taste delicious dishes of national German cuisine, as well as try the best varieties of German beer, which is rightfully considered one of the best in the whole world.
