CulturalZone

The centre of the Ruhr region, deep in the west of Germany. Use the Jahrhunderthalle - featured on the "Route der lndustriekultur" itinerary - as your starting and finishing point to explore the region. Only a stone's throw away are cultural highlights that include the Schauspielhaus Bochum theatre, the German Mining Museum and the renowned Bochum Symphony Orchestra. Diversity and cultural diversion, in close harmony. That is Bochum. So it's no coincidence that such a cultural aura surrounds the Jahrhunderthalle - radiating now as a beacon, where once the pit head towers soared. Attracting.
