With around 6.000 exhibits, the permanent exhibition of the Ruhr Museum about the fascinating natural and cultural history of the Ruhr area - from the emergence of coal to the structural change to become the Ruhr metropolis. But there is also a lot to discover outside the museum at Zollverein: more than 60 species of birds, over 40 species of wild bees and various rare amphibians are at home on the world heritage site. Many neophytes - these are plants from other countries that appreciate the conditions on industrial wastelands - also feel at home here. Discover the diversity of Zollverein!
Heads-up: The tour is currently only partially suitable for people who are not good on foot, as it leads, among other things, through the original, preserved above-ground facilities of the former Zollverein colliery and coking plant.
