    A fascinating, unique open-air museum of the region's mining history. Since last year it is also possible to pitch your tent in Ferropolis or travel by camper and spend a night or more among the iron giants. You can find more information at ferropolis.de.

    By the way: since 2020 you can swim in the Gremminer See just around the corner. Small boats are also allowed. And if you don't have a bike with you, you can rent one here.

      Open-air museum and event arena on the peninsula of the former site of the brown coal opencast mine. Lignite was mined until 1991 and the landscape was dug up in the process. Since reunification, the opencast mine has been shut down. Today Ferropolis is a living museum full of history that can be experienced.

      You can find more information about events and opening times here: ferropolis.de.
