As of February 2026, we’ve curated over 20 of WDR Fernsehen’s premier shows for your viewing pleasure.

Showcasing over 20 shows from 1963 up until 2010, WDR Fernsehen stands as a beacon of television excellence.











Between the first and second World Wars, we portray glorified and renown naval sea officer Felix Graf von Lucker and his fictitious ship Niobe, which is the 1887 built Amphitrite from Southampton. Von Luckner is famous for his tactical genius in the first World War, especially sinking 14 enemy ships and only losing one crewman, whilst always seeking a peaceful outcome - making him the ideal seaman.



Die Anrheiner is a German television soap opera series, broadcast on WDR-TV since March 21, 1998. The series is set and filmed in Cologne.
