German Mining Museum

Presenting a bigger picture of the world of mining, the German Mining Museum is one of the most popular museums in the country. The museum is located in Bochum in western Germany and also functions as a research center for metallurgy.

Visitors will have a more in-depth look into the world of mining as they make their way to the mineshafts underneath. Inside the museum, exhibitions of different technologies and machinery used in mining provide a broad glimpse into the intricacies of the coal and iron ore industry.

The museum’s tower, rising to about 70 meters high, is one of the city’s landmarks since its establishment in 1973. It was originally part of a mine, used to lower the cages into the mineshafts below. People can head to the viewing deck above to see wonderful views of Bochum. When choosing accommodations in Bochum, expect to find plenty of choices including popular chains, budget lodgings and boutique types.
