I am heading off for a day in the Ruhrgebeit, does anyone know this area well? As you may expect my main destination is Zollverein, but I was wondering if there was anywhere in the area that would be worthy of a few hours. I have looked a little at Dusseldorf, but is there anything in the Ruhrgebeit proper that would be recommended. I am flying in and out of Weeze airport (near the Dutch border) so can't stray too far from that general area.
Does anyone have specific recommendations for Zollverein, as it is a pretty extensive complex? NB. my German is not so great, I can get by but guided tours are often a little too much for it. |
