The viewing platform on the roof offers visitors a very nice all-round view of the Ruhr Metropolis. The 117 m high landmark of the city of Oberhausen was put into operation in 1929 as a disk gas holder (a waste product from the surrounding blast furnaces of the Gutehoffnungshütte, the top gas, was temporarily stored here in order to then be burned again in the rolling mills). It has been Europe's highest exhibition hall since 1994. Particularly impressive also the photo exhibitions taking place inside when we were there with the theme : THE FRAGILE PARADISE, a really worthwhile destination.
