    One of the largest and most productive collieries in the Ruhr area was the Ewald colliery in Herten. On March 28, 2000, the last conveyor shift was run.
    The Hoppenbruch spoil tip adjoins the site. Together with the Hoheward heap, it forms the largest heap landscape in Europe with around 220 hectares.

      The old collieries are impressive, precisely because they have fallen into disrepair. They wonderfully reflect the industrial culture of the Ruhr area. In this setting there is also a beer garden, so you can enjoy the atmosphere.

        The old, former industrial culture belongs to the pot and must be preserved and now used further. She has a real charm afterwards.
