Wuppertal is a city in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia, located in and around the Wupper valley, east of Düsseldorf and south of the Ruhr. It is the largest city in Bergisches Land, with a population of over 350,000 people. Wuppertal is noted for its steep hills, woodlands and parks, and the Wuppertal Schwebebahn, a suspension train. It is Germany's greenest city, with two-thirds of the whole municipal area covered by green space. It is merely a ten-minute walk from any section of the city to one of the city's public parks or forest pathways.

The Wupper valley was one of continental Europe's biggest industrial areas in the 18th and 19th centuries. The growing need for coal from textile mills and blacksmith shops fueled the growth of the neighboring Ruhrgebiet. Wuppertal is still a significant industrial center, with industries like as textiles, metallurgy, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, electronics, cars, rubber, vehicles, and printing equipment based there.

Wuppertal is the birthplace of aspirin, which was invented by Bayer in 1897, as is the Vorwerk Kobold vacuum cleaner.

The city is home to the Wuppertal Institute for Climate, Environment, and Energy as well as the European Institute for International Economic Relations.
