Ruhr Metropolis

116 km from east to west, 67 km from north to south, and around 5.3 million residents – that’s the Ruhr Metropolis. In addition, you'll find impressive industrial monuments, expansive recreation areas, a dense cultural landscape with theatres and small artistic venues, operas and concert halls, museums and galleries of international ranking, diverse leisure activities, and an exciting nightlife. Naturally, you can’t see everything during your first visit. However, one should certainly venture beyond Dortmund's city limits. The attractions in the area have spectacular experiences in store for you. We’ve compiled a small selection for you here. Come visit us again. There's still much more to do!
