A warm welcome!
The Hilden City Library is spread over a total of three floors, all of which are barrier-free.
There is a magazine area on the first floor with magazines on a wide range of topics. Daily newspapers can be read comfortably anywhere in the house. Family, children's and strategy games are available in the board games area. Books on gaming and video games for the Nintendo Switch, Playstation 5 and other consoles round off the range of games.

St. Nicholas party
Since St. Nicholas has so much to do but really wants to visit the children in Hilden, he continues traveling around the world even after his holiday and therefore arrives at the library in Hilden a few days later to hand out small gifts. Maybe the children would like to sing a Christmas carol for St. Nicholas? They can also take photos with him. Admission is free.
