Museum Bochum

With its collection and changing exhibitions, the "Bochum Museum" presents art and culture in the Ruhr Area. Situated opposite Bochum's city park, works of art are displayed in the Villa Marckhoff-Rosenstein.


The focus of the museum's art collection is on the Eastern European art scene, but contemporary works, classics, and works by experimental performance artists can also be found here. The museum is a worthwhile excursion destination during a tour of the Ruhr metropolis.

Bochum

Bochum is the Festival Centre in the Metropolitan Ruhr Area, whose attractions draw visitors from far and wide. You can visit the Hall of the Century, a huge old industrial building with a gabled roof and ridge turrets which was once an old gas blower and dynamo station. In April 2003, after extensive renovations, the transformed building was re-opened as the festival headquarters of the RuhrTriennale performing arts festival. MORE
