Bus tour to Oberhausen and Kelmis/Belgium
The day trip takes you from Essen via Oberhausen to Kelmis in Belgium. In Oberhausen, you'll gain fascinating insights into the ongoing construction work at the Altenberg zinc factory during a guided tour. After a lunch break in Aachen, we'll visit the Vieille Montagne Museum at the historic site of the former zinc company in Kelmis. There will also be time for independent exploration before returning to Essen.
