Dortmund is the beer city in the Ruhr Area, and visitors can naturally also visit an appropriate museum on their city break in the Ruhr metropolis, the Brewery Museum.


In an authentic location, you can learn details of the history of the industrialisation of the beer brewing process in Dortmund. The Brewery Museum in Dortmund is dedicated to the long and successful brewing tradition of Dortmund.

The visitor learns details about the heyday of the beer brewing industry in Dortmund since the 1950s, the history of Dortmund's many breweries, and the art of industrial beer brewing.

Beer, together with coal and steel, is part of the big triad of industrialisation in the Ruhr Area. Visitors to Dortmund's Brewery Museum thus also learn about Dortmund's development into an industrial city.
