We managed to get a tour of the Schloss with an extremely knowledgeable young female guide who conducted it half in German and half English . The tour started in the basement and proceeded through most of the upper floors... More

We spent an hour or so wandering round the mix of formal gardens and woodland. We went on a Monday so it was pretty quiet but my friend said it gets really busy at the weekends. It was a beautiful day when we went and I think it would be a really lovely place to take a picnic and relax... More

I love Schloss Benrath, it has a quite great colour - pink! You can easily go there by train, there is a train station right next to it called Düsseldorf Benrath. Not only the castle is awesome but also the gardens around it, you can get in touch with nature, really peaceful, nice lakes. Enjoy this opportunity to take many... More

We visited Benrath during the morning. We went there by metro. Takes a while though. But the metro stop is right before the entrence. You can also take the train to Benrath station. You need to walk to the castle for about 5-10 minutes. Unfortunately the 2 museums and the castle were closed when we arrived. But you can walk... More

Good views. A great place to walk in the open air. Nice gardens :) It's not easy to park. We had to leave the car quite far away.

A nice place to visit even if I could not get in because it was just about to close down, the park and neighborhood are pretty. I guess it is a good destination in the south of town

Schloss itself was average, but the grounds were beautiful...the autumn colours of the exstensive woods were a pleasure to walk in.
