Hiking

As late as 1848, there were still bushes and trees to the right and left of the Sonnenwall, which was called Sonnenwallstraße around 1870 and later, but as a road it was almost impassable and was therefore also called the "Dreckswall".

"No linden tree shade (as at Kuhlenwall) cools the hot ground where the sun burns," sang Johann Heinrich Christian Nonne, pastor and poet, in 1808 about the Sonnenwall in his walks through Duisburg's fields.

Today, Sonnenwall is one of the preferred shopping streets in Duisburg city centre.

In addition to the Springwall and the Kuhlenwall, the Sonnenwall is the third of the old Duisburg ramparts. So if you walk along one of these “walls” today, you are already outside the walled old Duisburg.
