Hüttenführung

In the organizer's words:

Industrial monument, park and event location:
Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord

The history of the Meiderich ironworks, the technology and working conditions are expertly and vividly told on this guided tour. Follow the "path of iron" through the blast furnace from the "gout" to the "torpedo ladle wagon". Be impressed by the sheer number of scaffolding, pipes, boilers, stairs and platforms.
The former great importance of this industrial monument for the coal and steel industry becomes tangible here. Today, its new use makes the Meidericher Hütte a symbol of the structural change in the region.

For just under two hours, you will explore the interplay between metallurgical and industrial history, blast furnace technology and an operational cultural site.

The tour is not barrier-free.
