Niederkassel is an urban borough of Düsseldorf. It is on the west side of the river Rhine, bordering to Oberkassel and Lörick. Niederkassel was together with Oberkassel and Lörick a part of Heerdt until Heerdt became a part of Düsseldorf in 1909. Niederkassel got its connection to Düsseldorf when the Oberkassel Bridge was opened in 1898. In the beginning of the 20th century Oberkassel and Niederkassel were places where a lot of artists lived. Since there was an arts exhibition in Düsseldorf in 1902, Oberkassel and Niederkassel became well-situated boroughs. In the 1970s the Japanese discovered Oberkassel and Niederkassel as preferred places in Germany to live. In 1973 the permanent facility of Japanese School of Düsseldorf opened in Niederkassel.〔"(Überblick über die Schulgeschichte )." ((Archive )) ''Japanische Internationale Schule in Düsseldorf''.

Niederkassel sometimes is called "Klein-Tokio" ("Little Tokyo") by locals. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Düsseldorf-Niederkassel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
