About this audio guide
This guide to the Medienhafen in Düsseldorf sets the glass and media offices aside for an older trade: the steam mill that opened on this quay in 1906 and the household flour brand it put into Rhineland kitchens. You'll meet Georg Plange of Soest, the man credited with inventing household flour, and the tall concrete silos built to swallow grain. Stand where you can see the brick tower and the row of cylinders together.
