Where chimneys once smoked, in the heart of the newly redesigned Landschaftspark-Nord, there now lies a place for relaxation, fun, and adventure: the Duisburg Landschaftspark Youth Hostel. The former Thyssen Hüttenwerke administration building welcomes school classes, conference guests, and families who want to experience the Ruhr region up close.
Today, the Landschaftspark Nord serves as an adventure park. Nestled amidst the relics of the former Ruhr region, industrial heritage is naturally also a theme for school trips and trips for kids and teens at the youth hostel.
Staying overnight in exceptional comfort and ambiance is something that also appeals to conference guests. The historic building offers modernly equipped rooms and a professional conference atmosphere. And after a productive day, you can either experience "history firsthand" or set off on walks and bike rides through the Ruhr region.
Blast furnaces, gasometers, and mine shafts have shaped the face of the Ruhr region for decades. Today, you can experience true adventures in the Landschaftspark Nord—even at night, when the disused industrial giants are bathed in fantastic light.
