A Walk Through History and Technology
At the center is the path of iron: from the blast furnace to the torpedo car, supplemented by illustrative explanations of blast furnace technology, working conditions, and the former significance of the plant for the mining industry. The tour shows how the closed-down hut became a symbol of the transformation of the region.

Industrial Backdrop with Impressive Atmosphere
Scaffolding, pipes, boilers, stairs, and platforms shape the backdrop and make the walk a cultural enrichment with strong characteristics of the Ruhr area. The landscape park is among the most popular natural and cultural landscapes in North Rhine-Westphalia, combining industrial culture with park landscape and offering free entry around the clock.
