Historischer Jahrmarkt

In the organizer's words:

Welcome to the Historical Fair!
Experience Europe's largest historical indoor fair and immerse yourself in pure fairground fun in a unique industrial setting!

Sweet treats, cheerful children's laughter and music from all corners - the Historical Fair is a real highlight in the event calendar of the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum. Join us on a journey through time and feel the special atmosphere of days gone by.

Take a ride on the 1926 caterpillar track or enjoy the view from the historic Ferris wheel. Marvel at the lovingly painted horse-drawn carousel from 1885, let yourself be confused in the hall of mirrors or experience a "ride to paradise" on the 1930s mountain and valley railroad - an experience that will make every heart beat faster. Children's eyes light up here and adults feel like children again - you can experience all this at the Historical Fair in the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum in February and March.
