Nordsternpark

Highlight • Monument

The chimneys of heavy industry used to smoke here: this place has a long history as a mining site. But since 1993 there has been a shift in the shaft here. In the years that followed, the Federal Garden Show, which opened in 1997, was created here. It is the new beginning of the Nordstern as a recreation area and event location.

Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex

Highlight • Historical Site

The once most modern and still most beautiful mine in Europe has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001, offering a wide range of cultural and leisure activities in fascinating industrial architecture, embedded in wild nature. No matter what the weather, the Zollverein is an experience inside and out in every season.
