"The gasometer in Herne would actually have to be called 'Hibernia pane glass container.' It is one of the few of its kind in the Gewerbepark area and is a Grade II listed Klönne gas storage tank built in 1927 and operated from 1960 as a nitrogen gas tank After 15 months, the restoration work on the gasometer ended in December 2006. The architect Frank Günther, who specializes in monument protection, was commissioned by the LEG with the construction management for this extraordinary project. " Source: gasometerherne.de

The listed gas holder always stands in the shadow of its big brother in Oberhausen - even though it is no less impressive.
It was built in 1927 as a coke gas holder, but was operated as a nitrogen gas holder after 1960. 7,000 square meters of outdoor space, 20,000 cubic meters of capacity, 44 meters in height and around 27 meters in diameter – these are the details of the colossus.
