The paradise is the site of the former coking plant.
If you step through the gate to "paradise" you enter another world. This area between the coking plant and the Saar was untouched for more than 20 years, like an earthly Garden of Eden. Animals and plants flourished in the shade of the blast furnace group. Step by step, nature has reclaimed and transformed the site.
According to the plans of the landscape architect Catherina Countess Bernadotte from the island of Mainau, a large landscaped garden was created here, which stages the symbiosis of industry and nature in 12 garden rooms. Today, birch trees are growing between the coke batteries and the butterfly bush is blooming. Fish have settled in the former tar basin. Benches invite you to linger in nature, where heat, dust and fire once reigned. 'Hell' has become 'paradise'.
