Here you can recreate the history of the Ruhrpotts. In the museum there are many interesting information about the early coal mining in the Muttental and in the whole pot. Then you drive yourself in the visitor's gallery. Here you can even work as a miner yourself. However, such "hands-on tours" require prior notification.

The Nachtigall colliery is a former coal mine in Bommern. The mine is located at the entrance to the Muttental and is part of the Muttental mining trail. The colliery was one of the largest civil engineering mines in the region. In the mine, lumpy fat coal, which was of good quality, was extracted in civil engineering. Today the LWL-Industriemuseum Zeche Nachtigall is located on the factory premises.
