Neuss sits on the Rhine in North Rhine-Westphalia, where the river’s broad lowlands meet the densely settled Rhineland. The city developed beside Novaesium, a Roman military base established in the first century BC and among Germany’s earliest Roman sites. At its centre, the Romanesque Quirinus Minster, with its prominent west tower and dome, recalls Neuss’s medieval importance. The old town remains closely linked to the Rhine corridor, while Düsseldorf lies across the river.
