Path of Coal: An exhibition that makes the Ruhr area tangible
At the LWL-Museum Zeche Hannover in Bochum, Path of Coal offers an impressive look at the traces of hard coal mining. The exhibition features photographs by Khalil Noé Döring and accompanies people, places, and paths that have been shaped by the coal trade for decades.
Between industrial history and the present
The exhibit combines documentary photography with a strong regional narrative. This creates an event experience that not only informs but also takes the audience on a journey through work, change, and memory. Particularly in the historical setting of the Zeche Hannover, the theme unfolds a special depth.
A place with authentic atmosphere
The museum is part of the LWL-Museums for Industrial Culture and provides the perfect framework for an exhibition about the path of coal. The Malakow tower, the historical facilities, and the spacious outdoor area enhance the impact of the images, making the visit a credible piece of Ruhr area experience.
