ExtraSchicht im Zechenpark Friedrich Heinrich

Culture, Music & Mining Traditions

Live music and DJ sets fill the air at the Schirrhof grounds. The grounds become a hub of music, action, and creative encounters: live bands and DJ sets create a fantastic atmosphere, while the extraordinary exhibition by renowned artist Thomas Baumgärtel offers surprising, creative, and inspiring insights.

Artistic performances and interactive activities invite you to marvel, while guided tours of the educational tunnels and the settlement tell the story of mining traditions. Stilt walkers glow in the evening light, and humorous miners provide moments of laughter.

A diverse evening that brings together history, creativity, and community.
