In Mettmann, on the other hand, you can visit Hardenberg Castle or take a walk through the old town. This offers many half-timbered houses from the 17th century as well as a museum with exhibits on the town's history.
Cultural highlights can also be found in both towns: the Theater am Königshof in Erkrath regularly shows performances of various genres such as musical theatre or cabaret. In Mettmann, the international jazz festival takes place every year - an absolute highlight for all music lovers!
For culinary specialities, we recommend the traditional "Rheinischer Sauerbraten" or also "Himmel un Äd". You should definitely try both! Another highlight are the beer gardens, where you can sit comfortably and enjoy a cool drink.
For those who like to be active, there are many possibilities here: Hiking in the Bergisches Land Nature Park or cycling on the Niederbergbahn panoramic cycle path. In winter, skiing is an option in the nearby Neuss winter sports area.
Even when the weather is bad, there is plenty to do in Erkrath and Mettmann: Why not visit the indoor playgrounds "Kindertraumland" or "Monkey Island". Or have an exciting time playing laser tag!
