Wo einst die Kohle glühte, haben heute Kreativquartiere, Galerien, Clubs und Restaurants ihre Pforten geöffnet. Zechentürme, Förderbänder und Maschinenhallen sind das Gesicht der JAHRE Industriekultur im Ruhrgebiet und Teil der Identität einer ganzen Region. Die vielen historischen Gebäude, die früher dem Bergbau dienten, faszinieren mit einer le- bendigen Kulturszene, überraschenden Veranstaltungen und einem inspirierenden GESCHICHTE Blick von der Vergangenheit in die Zukunft einer einmaligen Region. Zwischen den Zeugen von Stahl und Kohle schlägt das Herz des Entdeckers höher.

Where coal once used to glisten and glow, creative quarters, galleries, clubs and restaurants have now opened their doors to the public. Coal mine towers, conveyor belts and machine halls are the face of industrial culture in the Ruhr Area and are part of the identity of an entire region. The many historic buildings that once served the min- ing industry fascinate with a lively cultural scene, surprising events and an inspiring look from the past into the future of a unique region. The heart of the explorer skips a beat between the elements that bear witness to the era of steel and coal. Guided tours on the roof of a former coking plant, street food in the shade of a winding tower or diving into the interior of a gasometer: The industrial culture in the Ruhr Area surprises, encourages creativity and lets you take a look behind extraordinary settings that have been closed to the public for a long time.

  • BASIC PRESS RELEASE Summary January 2018
    BASIC PRESS RELEASE Summary January 2018 The UNESCO World Heritage Site Zollverein Essen. The "most beautiful coal mine" in the world: the Zollverein Coal Mine and Coking Plant in Essen is a landmark of the Ruhr area, a monument of industrial culture and a symbol of the transformation of the once largest coal mine in the world into an attractive location for culture and leisure, education and business. Today, Zollverein stands for an identity-creating culture of remembrance in the Ruhr area and simultaneously for future-oriented location development. The site of the Zollverein Coal Mine and Coking Plant comprises about 100 hectares. Since the closure of the coal mine in 1986 and of the coking plant in 1993, the facilities have been successively renovated and redeveloped for new uses. With approximately 1.5 million visitors per year (2011–2017), the Zollverein UNESCO World Heritage Site is today the region's leading tourist attraction. In addition to the monumental industrial architecture designed by Fritz Schupp and Martin Kremmer, it is above all the museum and cultural offerings that attract visitors from near and far. These include guided tours of the above-ground facilities of the coal mine and coking plant along the Denkmalpfad ZOLLVEREIN® (monument path), which have been preserved in their original state, the permanent and temporary special exhibitions of the Ruhr Museum, the Red Dot Design Museum and cultural events such as "ExtraSchicht" or concerts. Leisure activities and seasonal highlights - e.g. the Zollverein Park, the Works Swimming Pool and the ZOLLVEREIN® Ice Rink - complete the offer. Zollverein has also made a name for itself as an event location, and the World Heritage Site has been repeatedly awarded as the best event location in Germany.

Research in Germany HUMANITIES AND CULTURAL STUDIES > 4 PREFACE This brochure provides a first insight into research in Germany in the fields of humanities and cultural studies and is especially recommended to early career researchers from abroad. In Germany research in the humanities and cultural studies is primarily conducted at universities but also at non-university research institutions. Almost all universities and many universities of applied sciences host a research section in these fields. The spectrum ranges from small monothematic working groups to large interdisciplinary departments and covers a variety of topics from traditional areas to new explorative research fields. This brochure is intended to give an initial overview. The following map and tables highlight research consortia and graduate training programmes at universities and non-university research institutes with a main focus on the humanities and cultural studies. On top of this, there is a lot more to discover: e.g. the DFG funds a multitude of individual projects in the area of the humanities and cultural studies. These individual grants outweigh the research consortia both in number and in overall funding volume.
