Bottrop Greeters
‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎ Free Personal Walking Tour with a Local

Discover Bottrop through a free personal walk with a local

Bottrop in the Ruhr region, very different from what you think.

Discover Bottrop on the northern edge of the Ruhr region in the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia alongside a Greeter. Immerse yourself in the history of mining, which has shaped the city over the last 200 years. Where collieries and coal dominated the landscape until 2018, you can now see greenery and industrial culture as far as the eye can see. Everything is in a state of flux and very different to how you imagine the Ruhrpott.
