Reisholz

Reisholz is an urban quarter of Düsseldorf, part of Borough 9.

It is located in the south of the city, bordering Holthausen, Benrath, Hassels and the river Rhine.

Its history started in 1905 by creation of a harbour to the Rhine, a goods station and an industrial area by the Industrie-Terrains Düsseldorf-Reisholz (IDR) company.

Many chemical factories, engine building industries, paper mills, petrochemical manufacturers and an oil refinery went to Reisholz.

In the harbour of Reisholz there are plans for a new business and living area.[when?]
