Borough 1 (Düsseldorf)

Borough 1 () is the central borough of Düsseldorf, the state capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany and the city's commercial and cultural center. The borough covers an area of 11.31 square kilometres and (as of December 2020) has about 86,000 inhabitants.

Despite being one of Düsseldorf's smallest boroughs by area, Stadtbezirk 1 includes several distinct quarters: the city's Medieval Altstadt is known as an entertainment district with plenty of Altbier pubs and bars, while the adjacent Baroque-style Carlstadt has a very Bohemian character. Stadtmitte is the city's shopping and central business district, extending into the three Gründerzeit quarters of Pempelfort, Derendorf and Golzheim - the latter three also being popular as both business locations and residential areas. The entire borough has a high density of institutions and enterprises associated with the arts and culture in general.

The borough shares borders (clockwise from north) with Düsseldorf boroughs 5, 6, 2, 3 and - over the Rhine - Borough 4.

Subdivisions Borough 1 is made up of six Stadtteile (city parts):
