RE: Zeche Zollverein- The “Eiffel Tower of the Ruhr area” with an ice rink and a factory swimming pool

The colliery is beautifully transformed. One would think of an industrial structure to be cold and lifeless but the way it was re-purposed surrounded by nature lives up to its name - "cathedral of industrial culture" The glass scale model is tasteful and so are the other spaces.

That's right, they did a great job of transforming it from a distraction in the middle of the city into something special and worth seeing. Thanks for looking! :) It was really nice at the end of the exhibition.
