Düsseldorf-Lörick

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lörick is an urban borough of Düsseldorf. It is located on the left side of the river Rhine, bordering to the river, Niederkassel, Heerdt and Meerbusch. Lörick was a small village belonging to the office of Heerdt until there was a connecting through ´the Oberkassel Brighde to Düsseldorf in 1898. In 1909 Lörick became - together with Heerdt - a part of Düsseldorf.

Lörick became a typical suburb. In 1957 the North Brighde of Düsseldorf (Theodor-Heuss-Brücke) was opened. So there was a direct connection of Lörick with Düsseldorf (not only via Oberkassel). In 1960 the skyscraper complex "Seestern" was built in Lörick. Until the 1990's it growed up. In 1961 an open air bath opened in Lörick.
