Zollverein - Famous coal mine

The landmark of Essen, the nationally famous Zollverein coal mine with its tower. Also known, among other things, as the Eiffel Tower of the Ruhr region, the works was one of the largest from 1851 to 1986. Today it is an architectural and industrial monument and was even made a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001. It is a beautiful sight and also a popular event location. A great recommendation from us!
