July 16, 2023,Route der Industriekultur 3/3 Essen-Recklinghausen
The third and final stage through the Ruhr area began with a tour of the Zollverein coking plant, which was once the largest and most efficient hard coal mine in the world and the largest central coking plant in Europe, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
