UNESCO World Heritage Zollverein

Title
UNESCO World Heritage Zollverein
Description

The UNESCO World Heritage Zollverein was once the most productive and modern coal mine and coking plant in the world. The former industrial buildings have now been transformed into something completely new; the site now contains a dance theatre (Pact Zollverein), the Ruhr Museum, a visitor centre, as well as various commercial properties and restaurants. During the conversion of the listed buildings, care was taken to ensure that the industrial character was still recognisable. A great deal of the machinery was also preserved, meaning the former technical function of the complex remained recognisable.
