Travel guide Ruhrgebiet

weather & climate

How is the weather in the Ruhr area?

Freezing Happens Elsewhere


Book a private apartment or a house in the Ruhr area and discover the full splendor of the legendary Pott in North Rhine-Westphalia. The area is located in a temperate climate zone but is already influenced by the Atlantic. Southwest and northwest winds are common. High humidity characterizes the region around the Ruhr. Winters are mild - with few frost and snow days. However, in the warmest month, the temperature averages no more than 22 degrees Celsius. To the east, the transition to a continental climate already begins. There are some climatic differences in urban areas. In summer, temperatures there are higher, and in winter, milder than in the surrounding countryside. Due to the favorable conditions, vacations in winter are also very popular. Some attractions and destinations are also suitable in autumn and winter.

sights

Which sights are there in the Ruhr area?

Industrial History Vivid and Impressive


Attractions and highlights line the entire Ruhr area and the Ruhr metropolis. One of them is the Zollverein Coal Mine in Essen. Exhibitions in the museum, guided tours, and cultural events are regularly on the agenda here. The mine is a former coal mine with a moving history. Since 2001, it has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Another impressive industrial monument can be found in Oberhausen: the Gasometer, the tallest exhibition hall in Europe. Last century, the building served as a disk gas container, then as an intermediate storage for coking gas. Today, theater performances, concerts, and extraordinary art projects take place in the Gasometer Oberhausen. You can ideally combine industrial history and beautiful nature in the Duisburg-Nord Landscape Park. The 180-hectare park includes parts of a decommissioned steel mill. A former blast furnace has even been converted into an observation tower, offering you a breathtaking view. You can also relive long-past times at Broich Castle. In Mülheim an der Ruhr stands the oldest castle complex from the late Carolingian period. A highlight in winter: the Broich Castle Christmas. So, it's worth renting a nicely furnished vacation apartment or an affordable holiday home in the Ruhr area in North Rhine-Westphalia even in winter. Beer is an integral part of the Ruhr area. Here, not only are there many breweries offering tours, but also the Brewery Museum and beer festivals that provide insights into brewing culture, including that of the Middle Ages.

art & culture

What is a must-see in the Ruhr area?

Digging for Culture


In the Essen district of Bredeney, you will find the impressive Villa Hügel - surrounded by a 28-hectare park. Various cultural events are regularly on the diverse program here. In the historic rooms, you can also take an interesting look into the past of art and cultural history. In the quiet, large garden, you can stroll and get to know nature more closely. Burg Blankenstein awaits as another historical highlight. Not far from Lake Kemnader, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the surroundings from the castle. Visit the buildings, the ruins of the castle, and also pay a visit to the Hattingen Museum to learn more about the interesting past.

Those who have rented a vacation apartment or house near the big city of Dortmund can set off from there to some exciting destinations. Oberhausen Castle is also a cultural highlight. This neoclassical building also houses the Ludwig Gallery, where permanent and temporary exhibitions are presented. In the Popular Gallery, you can also find caricatures, poster art, or comics. You can also marvel at the Archaeological Park in Xanten. Since 1974, excavation has been underway to uncover and research the layout of the ancient Roman city of Colonia Ulpia Traiana. Here you will find an amphitheater or the hostel as life-sized models. In a large park and a Roman museum, there is more to learn about the eventful history. In summer, cultural events also take place in the amphitheater near your apartment in an impressive setting.

food & beverages

Where can I eat out in the Ruhr area?

Currywurst and Gourmet Miles


Set out from your cozy vacation accommodation, apartment, or house with modern equipment in Dortmund and discover the culinary diversity of the Ruhr area and the Sauerland! Eight Michelin-starred restaurants, street food festivals, or gourmet miles ensure true culinary delights. In the Revier, different people and cultures come together. This also makes the restaurant scene so unique. Of course, you will also find typical Ruhr area cuisine - with hearty meat dishes, robust stews, and of course, the famous currywurst. This is usually accompanied by a beer from a quaint home brewery. In addition to the local specialties, Italian, Greek, Asian, or Turkish dishes are also very popular among locals and vacationers. In summer, the "open-air restaurants" invite you to a culinary expedition. Top chefs of all kinds pamper you, for example, at "Gourmedo," "Rü Genuss Pur," or "Bochum Kulinarisch." The gourmet miles combine local specialties with hospitality and excellent top gastronomy. Special theme events are also becoming increasingly popular, such as the Panhasfest in Hattingen or the Matjesfest in Duisburg.

activities with children

What can you experience in the Ruhr area with children?

Animals and Roller Coasters


An affordable vacation apartment from a private owner - centrally located near the main train station in the Ruhr area. An ideal prerequisite for unforgettable holidays with both young and old - or even for a vacation with a dog in the Ruhr area. The Duisburg Zoo is also teeming with animals. The park impresses with a wide variety of species - including dolphins, koalas, elephants, monkeys, or clouded leopards. An experience for children: the petting zoo, the farm, the playground, or the Discovery House. A popular destination for families with children is also the CentrO Oberhausen in the city center. The largest shopping and leisure center in Europe. Over 220 stores ensure the greatest shopping pleasure during your stay. You will also find the Model Railway World, Centro Park, or Sea Life on the premises. A walk through the extensive shopping area is definitely worth it!

One of the most beautiful heaps in the region is located at Heinrich-Hildebrand-Höhe - with the walkable sculpture "Tiger and Turtle." From this plateau, you also have a wonderful view of the city of Duisburg. The artwork is a roller coaster sculpture that causes amazement, especially in the evening hours when it shines in the most dazzling colors. Roller coasters and action-packed rides abound at Movie Park Germany in Bottrop-Kirchhellen. Exciting attractions and great shows transport you into the world of film. A highlight for both young and old.

sights & activities

What do you need to experience in the Ruhr area?

2,600 Roses and Football


North Rhine-Westphalia and the Ruhr area are very densely populated, yet you can also enjoy a lot of peace and nature during a vacation with an apartment, apartment, or large residence. The 70-hectare Westfalenpark in Dortmund is one of the largest inner-city parks in Europe. The landmark of the Botanical Garden is the over 220-meter-high Florian Tower, which guarantees a breathtaking panoramic view. The facility can also be explored on a ride with a small train. 2,600 different roses, a museum for children, or the nature conservation house await you here. A steel construction on the heap at Beckstraße in Bottrop, on the other hand, stands for the transformation of the city and the area. The Tetrahedron, a 50-meter-high sculpture, has become an impressive landmark of the region. You can reach three viewing platforms via a staircase, which offer a fantastic view. Enjoy a regional beer at sunset in the best location and let the surroundings affect you!

What would the region be without football? VfL Bochum, RW Essen, MSV Duisburg, Borussia Dortmund, and FC Schalke 04 are the big traditional clubs in the Ruhrpott. The Signal Iduna Park, the stadium in Dortmund, is even considered a landmark of the city. Here you can not only attend Borussia's home games but also participate in a tour of the stadium or visit the lovingly designed Borusseum. Similarly impressive is the nearby Veltins Arena in Schalke (Gelsenkirchen). The stadium was the first venue with a retractable lawn and a closable roof. In addition to FC Schalke's home games, you can also take part in tours here and visit the impressive Schalke Museum.
