LWL Industrial Museum Zollern Review

Zhuolun No. 2 and No. 4 mines, located in downtown Dortmund, are Dortmund Mining Museum. The museum building is part of the mine that was once used, and it is placed with mining tools used in the year. The interior space is empty and full of faint nostalgia.

It is this kind of hard work to commemorate the industrial workers of mining in the Ruhr area that greatly promotes the industrial kinetic energy of the local and even German industries!

Show industrial workers, especially in Ruhr - mining workers to the city and regional development of outstanding contributions!

The mines that once mined contributed to the take-off of the German economy.

Dortmund ｜ Like an industrial relics of a mansion This coal mine factory, if it weren't for a tall steel structure mine transmission frame in the distance, at first glance it looked like an old mansion of some nobleman, very literary. But this is exactly the connotation the builders here originally wanted to express. Zhuolun mine was built between 1898 and 1904, and it was a plan used by the coal mine company to establish the leading position in the industry. It was designed by the most expensive plant, introduced the latest mining equipment and technological innovation. To show its strength and ambition to its competitors and hope that the mine will become a "model mine", but as with all coal mining industries in the Ruhr region, the Zhuolun mine was permanently closed in 1966. In 1981, LWL (Landschaftsverband Westfalen Lippe) changed it to the National Museum of Industrial Heritage. The red brick facade is also known as the "Palace of Labor", and the beautiful round gates of the engine room have long been a landmark, but the contents of the display rooms are heavy. It shows the miners working and peaceful recreation, from changing clothes, going down the well, to returning to the ground to clean themselves after work, and the harsh working environment is lifelike in front of us. The limited recreation and the love of the young men and women of that era were perhaps the only comfort. Underground in these factories, there are still tunnels that miners walk through, and now there are precious photography on display.
