The gasometer is more than an industrial monument. Since it was decommissioned, it has become a landmark of the city of Oberhausen and also an unmistakable symbol of an entire region. Built at the end of the 1920s, Europe's largest disc gas holder is an impressive reminder of the heavy industry that shaped the Ruhr area for more than a century.

The temporary exhibitions are always worth a visit and the view from the roof over the Centro and then over almost the entire area are breathtaking.
