Auf meiner letzten Reise zum Ruhr Valley Drehing für Pilgart untersuchtwo ich Orte erforsche, die oft missverstanden oder falsch dargestellt werden, ging ich nach Marxloh in Duisburg – einem Viertel, das von Medien und Politikern gleichermaßen als „Deutschlands gefährlichstes Ghetto“ bezeichnet wurde.
Ich ging alleine durch die Gegend, sprach mit Leuten, überprüfte die Geschäfte, die Straßen, die Atmosphäre. Und ehrlich? Es fühlte sich nicht so an wie das extrem gefährliche Ghetto, für das es oft gemacht wurde. Sicher, es ist rau an den Rändern, und es gibt soziale Probleme, aber… die am schlimmsten in Deutschland? Ich kann nicht glauben, dass das wahr ist …
🎥 Hier ist das Video: Solo in Deutschlands berüchtigter Ghetto, Marxloh
Jetzt bin ich neugierig, was die Einheimischen denken:
- Wurde Marxloh von Politikern und Boulevardzeitungen zu Unrecht gescannt?
- Wie ist es tatsächlich mit anderen kämpfenden Stadtteilen in Deutschland verglichen?
Ich bin wirklich daran interessiert, alle Seiten zu hören. Wenn Sie aus Marxloh, Duisburg kommen oder die Gegend gut kennen, lassen Sie mich wissen, was dein Nehmen Sie – was Außenseiter richtig machen, was sie völlig vermissen und wie Sie sich über den Ruf dieses Distrikts fühlen.
Ich freue mich auf die Diskussion – und zögern Sie nicht, das Video zu rösten, wenn Sie glauben, etwas falsch verstanden habe
Is Marxloh really “Germany’s most dangerous ghetto”? I went solo to find out.

Coming from an American perspective, even in Germany’s most dangerous area, I felt very safe.
The old man is wrong about Oldenburg being in Eastern Germany, it‘s a city in Niedersachsen.
Edit: And the poster is from Essen Widersetzen, a protest against the AfD‘s party convention last year.
It’s the same as many towns in this part of Germany. You could have done the same video in Gelsenkirchen, Essen, Bochum or Oberhausen. The whole „Ruhrpott“ is completely lost for good. It’s a decade long progress to this situation which got worse when the Sinthi and Roma came from Eastern Europe. This part of the country has the most unemployed the most trash in the streets and also subcultures from many different migrant groups. There it zero social cohesion left. It’s that bad – yes.
Yeah, Dangerous is meant relatively.
Duisburg Marxloh is not famous for being a super dangerous ghetto.
It was in the media many years because of the migration of thousands of very poor members of family clans from the Balkans and the social problems that came with them.
>**Has Marxloh been unfairly scapegoated by politicians and tabloids?**
One would have to be a really entitled, inexperienced and naive pussy to believe that this area is extremely dangerous
After doing some research on the subject, turns out, Germany’s „most dangerous ghetto“ wasn’t even in Germany, ironically, but in a town called Warsaw 🤔
Marxloh is not our most dangerous ghetto I don’t think, but also every „ghetto“ herewill be walkable just fine during the day and on main streets. Itfeela like you did not really try whatmakes Marxloh dangerous, which is fair game.
There is one place in Germany that is Germany’s „most dangerous“. There has to be: some places see more crime than others, and if you rank them in that order, one of them has to be at the top of the list.
That’s all that „most dangerous“ really means: it’s more dangerous than anywhere else in Germany, but since Germany in general is a safe country, that doesn’t mean you’re going to mugged, stabbed and shot the moment you set foot in the place. Nevertheless, to a German used to much safer neighbourhoods, it’s dangerous. So if you walk around the most dangerous place and nothing happens to you, that doesn’t mean that it’s not the most dangerous: it means that this is as dangerous as it gets in Germany.
Marxloh’s reputation goes back about 10 years, when the police warned that the area was coming under the control of Arabian mafia-style clans. But I’ve not often heard people say it’s the *most* dangerous neighbourhood: that honour usually goes to the Bahnhofsviertel in Frankfurt, although even there people tend to say that as long as you leave the junkies alone, they’ll leave you alone.
I don’t know that specific area, but from past experience with other so called no-go areas in Germany I must say that those calling them such have never seen anything coming close to a dangerous neighbourhood. Many Germans really don’t appreciate how good they have it. Doesn’t mean you can’t improve stuff.
As someone from Oakland California that is currently living in Germany, i have never been scared of any place in Germany. I will walk alone anywhere even in the middle of the night. It is extremely soft here like a baby Kopfkissen. The entire yearly average of violent crimes in Germany happens everyday before breakfast in the States
Not sure who‘s telling you what’s the worst ghetto in Germany, but that’s definitely an exaggeration. There aren’t really ghettoes here. It’s not like everyone even knows Marxloh Either. Maybe if you’re in the Ruhrpott, yea.
Wow, you are so brave.
As a german, I have never even heard of this Marxloh. And I listen to gangster rap
