Mülheim an der Ruhr

Travel Guide & Travel Information
The "city on the river" has always been closely linked to the Ruhr. Mülheim was one of the first locations to have to cope with structural change; the mines disappeared here as early as the 1960s. Thus, the city changed its "mining face" early on and is now home to numerous high-ranking companies from research, production as well as services. One of the top destinations for locals and their guests is the idyllic water station with its promenade. From here you can take relaxing boat trips or long walks. When visiting Mülheim, the unique Museum Mile should not be missed. Many worth seeing exhibitions and objects connect nature and technology as well as the past with the present.
