Leverkusen, located directly on the Rhine and nestled between the cities of Cologne and Düsseldorf, is primarily known as the home of Bayer AG - and the associated soccer club, the one-time German champions Bayer 04 Leverkusen. The city of 160,000 inhabitants is even named after a former chemical company. Founded by Carl Leverkus, it was sold on to the Bayer company in 1891. Since then, the city and the company have been inextricably linked. But even beyond this initial association, Leverkusen offers a surprising variety of exciting places and sights. Leverkusen thus offers the perfect setting for first-class corporate events that will strengthen your team chemistry in the long term.
At its heart, Leverkusen is an industrial city through and through. However, there are also numerous parks and green spaces here as a contrast. The 25-hectare Neuland Park is a prime example. Attractive for adults and children alike, it offers various play and sports facilities. Sunbathing lawns, a skate park, water fountains and installed play equipment for young and old are just waiting to be discovered. Carl Duisberg Park is another highlight for nature lovers. The associated Japanese Garden is particularly fascinating. In this impressive setting, visitors can experience creative activities and enjoy quiet moments of reflection.
First-class locations such as the stylish Kasino Leverkusen or the cozy Landhotel Fettehenne are available for conferences and team-building events. You will be spoiled with culinary delights in the city's numerous restaurants and cafés, which offer everything from regional to international cuisine.
