Darmstadt App:
Compact information and offers bundled in the Darmstadt app
STATUS
STAND
What makes Darmstadt, what moves Darmstadt, what is going on in Darmstadt? Whether information for tourists, about events, sights or gastronomy – the digital Darmstadt app provides quick and easy access to information from and about Darmstadt.
In the future, the digital application for mobile devices (app) is to be expanded and enable quick and easy access to administrative matters or services for citizens as well. Users can then show or hide information and modules depending on their needs and individual interests. The Darmstadt app is also the starting point for other apps with offers about Darmstadt.
What’s the point:
- More information and services (e.g. retail offers, information for tourists, defect notifier or service account for citizens).
- Bundle information and services from different databases in the app and make them available to users as needed
Who benefits from it:
- Citizens
- Visitors
What is the schedule?
Has already been on the market since the end of 2015
Further expansion stages: 4th quarter 2018

New digital tourist information
Guests often arrive well-informed by using reports on the internet. With the renovation of the Darmstadt Shop, an additional central point of contact has been created for citizens and tourists on Luisenplatz, which is transformed into an interactive experience through the use of the latest digital technology: The digital Darmstadt Shop combines personal advice with digital self-information and offers comprehensive news for visitors to the city.
Those interested can use a multitouch system on tablets for inspiration, explore the city using VR glasses in 360-degree shots, learn tips and tricks for using the Darmstadt app or the interactive Watch my City tour, or get to know the Future History application for their next excursion to Mathildenhöhe.
The employees offer advice on tourist offers, arrange city tours and sell a range of regional products, souvenirs and event tickets. Visitors to the redesigned tourist information centre can find out all the latest news on two information screens, such as upcoming events and excursion tips in Darmstadt and the region. Screens and tablets were provided by Smart City partner Samsung.
Opening hours: Monday to Saturday: 10 a.m.–6 p.m.
What’s the point?
- Conversion and redesign of the Darmstadt Shop into a ‘digital tourism information centre’ with various digital offerings such as touchscreens, mobile customer touchpoints and virtual-reality offerings
- Darmstadt will become even more attractive for visitors and citizens that are interested
