German Mining Museum in Bochum / Deutsches Bergbau Museum in Bochum

* Deutsches Bergbau Museum, Am Bergbaumuseum 28, 44791 Bochum (Germany)

* Founded in 1930, the Deutsches Bergbau-Museum Bochum – as the Leibniz Research Museum for Geo-resources – is tasked with collecting, preserving, investigating, exhibiting and teaching the material heritage of the mining industry. This is a duty that we honour both above and below ground, whether it be here in Bochum, or regionally, nationally or even internationally. Our mission statement reads: To spread the knowledge and experience of mining. And we do all of this under one roof.

Discover the fascinating world of mining by taking the tours of the permanent exhibition – Hard Coal, Mining, Mineral Resources and Art, experiencing the visitor’s mine and by ascending the headframe for the tower tour. So welcome, both above and below the ground.
