The Station Ritz Visitor Center in the station building in Niederwald pays homage to Caesar Ritz

More information about Ritz station

The exhibitions are open daily from 8.00 am to 6.00 pm.

At the Ritz Station, you can marvel at the objects from the archives of the Ritz Hotel in Paris, which were purchased at an online auction in 2018. These included the "Suite M", a reconstruction of a room from the former Ritz Hotel on Place de la Vendôme in Paris. Other items became part of the bistro's furnishings: special furniture, lamps and display cabinets now give the Ritz station its unique flair.
