Deutsche Arbeitsschutzausstellung
Deutsche Arbeits Schutz Ausstellung
The discovery exhibition run by DASA, the Germany Occupational Health and Safety Exhibition, is one of our insiders' tips for any trip to the Ruhr Area.
Under the motto, "Experience: Man // Work // Technology", this innovative and exciting museum puts all of your senses to good use in experiencing the working worlds of yesterday, today and tomorrow. The German Occupational Health and Safety Exhibition was opened in 1993, and was completed over an exhibition space of 13,000 m² in Dortmund as a part of the world exhibition "Expo 2000".
The guiding topic of the exhibition is the development of the working world in terms of occupational health and safety. Join in and try it out are the key ideas here. You can sit in a cockpit or hold a dentist's drill in your hand. The central problem focuses on securing central human values such as integrity, dignity, health, and participation in social life as relates to everyday working life.
To this end, historical and current working conditions are displayed. Workplaces from various industries have been reconstructed and made accessible for visitors.

City of Dortmund
The city was once dominated by pithead towers and steel mills, but now the factory chimneys have long been extinguished and a process of transformation is underway. The new motto could well be called “setting out for new shores”, for today the city is lit up in a bright array of colours. In short, Dortmund has now become a modern and highly entertaining city.
