Facts and practical information

The Werthschenhof is in parts the remains of a hunting lodge built in 1487 by Count Vincenz von Moers in the Rheinhausen district of Duisburg.

The name of the farm is derived from Werder or Werth, which means a river island or a stretch of land between a river and standing water. The Werthschenhof was therefore originally located on an island on the Rhine.
