At 105 meters above sea level, the Tockhausen tailings dump is not the highest in the area. But it offers a very nice view. A viewing highlight to the south is the converted winding tower with the Colaniei. To the north there is a good view of the Lünen power plant on the Datteln-Hamm Canal.

Until 1990, the dump was not open to the public. That changed on May 11, when Mayor Denkert officially released the heap.

From here you have a wonderful view of the nearby city harbor, the Trianel coal-fired power station and the area far beyond Lünen.
