The lifestyle of a metropolitan region
From industrial location to cultural landscape: The decommissioning and revitalization of numerous old industrial sites has created a unique cultural landscape. Landmarks such as the UNESCO World Heritage Site Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex have brought international renown to the Ruhr region. And the fine arts are also present here in many places.
