    In the past it was just a sewer that smelled terrible and where you could fish for “droppings”.
    (Everyone in the pot knows what to do with Köttel 😜)
    Today the Emscher is renatured and clean.
    However, it had to remain enclosed in this area because there is simply no room for a meandering riverbed.
