Luggage storage at Duisburg Hauptbahnhof

Many visitors to Duisburg arrive with a few hours to spare before a concert or a train, and have nowhere to leave a bag at their holiday rental.

Most cultural venues in the city accept larger bags at a cloakroom, though the industrial heritage sites have no storage of their own, so it helps to know what each place offers before setting out. Public transport reaches all of these sites, but luggage space is never guaranteed on the tram or bus. Luggage lockers are available at Duisburg Hauptbahnhof at Portsmouthplatz 1. Lockers at the station can be hired for up to 72 hours at a time. Regional-Express, Regionalbahn, and two Rhein-Ruhr S-Bahn lines all call at Duisburg Hauptbahnhof. With Stasher, you can store bags from €4.97 per bag per day at 20+ locations across Duisburg.

Luggage storage and bag rules at attractions

Visitors to the Museum Küppersmühle must leave larger bags (larger than DIN A4), backpacks, coats, and umbrellas at the cloakroom before entering the exhibition rooms. At the Mercatorhalle, the same DIN A4 limit applies, with larger bags refused entry to the hall and directed to the cloakroom.

For concerts at the Philharmonie Mercatorhalle, the cloakroom service covers coats and larger bags or backpacks and is included in the ticket price, so nothing extra needs to be paid. The hall itself is a ten-minute walk from Duisburg Hauptbahnhof, making it practical to use the station lockers first and walk over unencumbered.

Getting around Duisburg with luggage

Duisburg's industrial heritage sites spread beyond the centre, and the tram network is the practical way to reach them. Tram 903 from the Hauptbahnhof gets you to Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord followed by a ten-minute walk at the far end, and the same line stops at the Tiger & Turtle sculpture. The Innenhafen, by contrast, is reached on tram 901 to Rathaus or buses 934 or 939 to Hansegracht, Am Innenhafen. Bag space on public transport is not always guaranteed: the DVG's on-demand myBUS service advises keeping personal belongings to one piece of reasonable size, with carriage depending on available space and the driver's discretion. Standard trams and buses operate under the VRR fare system, where the eezy.nrw app handles automatic fare calculation, although this says nothing about bag limits on regular services. Theater Duisburg, being a ten-minute walk from the Hauptbahnhof, is easier to reach on foot than by public transport. Duisburg is home to the world's largest inland port.
