    As part of the RUHR.2010 Capital of Culture, the artist Nils-Udo created Burgenland, which consists of 15 green mounds of earth between one, two and three meters high.
    Typical colliery buildings made of Corten steel can be found on eight of the fifteen hills. The models of the mines, which have now become historical in themselves, represent Herten's 130-year mining tradition.

    Along the way eight miniature collieries can be seen on 15 small hills. They are from the land art artist Nils-Udo.
