Stories of the Ruhr
The Ruhr Museum is a must-see for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Ruhr region. Located in the former coal washing plant, the museum offers more than 6,000 exhibits on the natural and cultural history of the region on three levels. From the formation of coal 300 million years ago to today's structural transformation into the Metropole Ruhr, the permanent exhibition impressively illustrates the region's impressive history.
There are also fascinating temporary exhibitions that highlight different aspects of the Ruhr region. English-language guided tours offer a unique insight into the history of coal production and show the process from extraction to the conversion of coal into coke.
