Aquarius Water Tower

Highlight • Monument

The Aquarius water tower has become one of the landmarks of the city of Mülheim an der Ruhr. Here you can learn a lot about water, its treatment and development in the water museum (set up by the local water supplier). Very interesting for families with children, as there is also a quiz in the water tower. Around the corner you will find a mobile snack bar on the bike path.

View of the Mintarder Ruhrtal Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

A dubious monument to human occupation: the Mintarder Ruhrtalbrücke, which can be seen as an eyesore in the middle of the idyllic Ruhraue or as a cultural monument - after all, at almost two kilometers it is the longest German road bridge made of steel. Fortunately, you are not on the bridge in the car, but on this beautiful path along the Ruhr 🚴‍♂️🏞️😍.
