A Venue with Real Ruhr Area DNA
The Railway Museum Bochum is considered the largest private railway museum in Germany and displays more than 120 rail vehicles from 1853 to the present at the site of the former Bochum-Dahlhausen railway depot. The turntable, the circular engine shed, as well as the water tower, water crane, and coal loading facility make the place a stage for industrial culture with substance.
