Path of Coal at the LWL Museum Zeche Hannover: Industrial History with Strong Visual Impact
With Path of Coal a special exhibition opens in Bochum that looks far beyond the region: on the journey of coal from the Dutch coast along the Rhine to the Ruhr area. On 13.09.2026 at 10:00 AM, industrial culture meets impressive photography and a topic that continues to shape the structural change in the area to this day.
Photos that Make Work Visible
At the center are the works of Khalil Noé Döring, who documents the coal storage in Europoort in Rotterdam, shipping on the Waal and Rhine, as well as the stations in Duisburg with a keen eye for people, machines, and working environments. The photo series tells not only about transport routes but also about global raw material chains and professions that are undergoing a long transformation.
A Place with History Fits the Theme
The LWL Museum Zeche Hannover on Günnigfelder Straße is itself a powerful location for this pre-reporting: The historic industrial complex, once a mine and now a museum, enhances the atmosphere of the theme with an authentic ambiance. Anyone looking for industrial culture, mining history, and exhibition experiences will find a place here with high thematic relevance.
Accessibility, Arrival, and Visitor Comfort
The museum is designed for visits, even for guests with special needs. There are barrier-free accesses via an elevator to the machine hall, wheelchair-accessible restrooms, and designated parking spaces for disabled individuals right at the entrance. Arrival is possible by bus via the stops Hannoverstraße or Röhlinghauser Straße; additionally, parking opportunities are available on the museum grounds. Clearly regulated opening hours and good connections in the western Bochum area ensure relaxed planning.
What Visitors Can Expect

For those who want to experience Bochum and the Ruhr area through images, history, and atmosphere, this offers a powerful museum visit with depth.
