TRIPS IN NEUSS
Neuss is located in the midst of the intensely populated urban area shaped like a huge banana known as the Rhine Ruhr region. There is much to see, so taking a trip to see exciting, interesting or informative places is relatively easy.
Driving or using public transport are both easy methods to cross the region, the latter being often more time consuming.
Since the Ruhr region was heavily industrialised, such delights are often former locations from the period that have been reutilised. They include the Gasometer Oberhausen, a former gas storage tank, the world’s biggest box of Lego blocks, and an enormous, fascinating underwater world. The Zeche Zollverein is a vast, highly creative former industrial site and the Industrial Heritage Trail reveals many insights from the industrial revolution of 150 years ago of some 400 kilometres in length.
