Gerresheim is one of the oldest parts of the City of Düsseldorf, Germany. It is located in the east of the city and has a population of a little under thirty thousand.
The first church in Gerresheim is mentioned in documents dating back to the year 670. In 870 the church of the women's collegiate foundation of St Margaret's was establish by Gerricus.
In 1368 the village of Gerresheim situated around the religious house was made a city with full city rights by the Count of Berg.
In the 17th century many wealthy ladies in the convent moved away and the city of Gerresheim became more and more poor. The soldiers of the Truchsess War and after, the Thirty Years' War raided Gerresheim. The city lost its reputation, and in 1803 the abbey was abolished.
In 1815 Gerresheim was taken over by the Kingdom of Prussia and from 1909 Gerresheim is a part of Düsseldorf.
One of the main sights is Basilica Saint Margaretha, formerly St. Hippolytus, sanctified in 1236 in the place of a church of the Staufens. The treasures of the church are a crucifix that dates from the 10th century and a Gospel book from the 11th century. The Abbey’s edifices date from the 13th century. Another landmark is Quadenhof Castle, which dates from the 15th century.
