Essen with surroundings is largely known for its industrial capacities connected to Ruhr river. The story of the area is characterized by hard work and solidarity, largely constructed from its soaring wealth of “black gold” or coal for nearly a century that ended with rough time of the 70’s and 80’s. Last few decades went in direction of a new kind of renaissance and re-designing Ruhr into the culture capital of Germany. With a vast architectural landscape of churches, old factories and industrial parks, the area redefined its identity and set new dimension in its existence.
