Wersten is a quarter (Stadtteil) of Düsseldorf located in Borough 9 of the city.
It is south of Eller and Oberbilk, east of Bilk, and north of Holthausen.
After Napoleon reordered the West of the German-Roman Empire, Wersten acquired part of the Mairie of Benrath, in the Canton Richrath, Arrondissement Düsseldorf.
Later, after the Duchy of Berg fell to Prussia in 1815, Wersten was still part of the Mayoralty of Benrath.
The rest of the economy in Wersten is based on smaller companies.
