AKTIVKOHLE – Neighborhood House Zeche Zollverein:
The Zeche Zollverein in Essen is not only a UNESCO World Heritage Site as an industrial monument, but with its various museums and creative spaces, it is also a cultural attraction far beyond the Ruhr region. It stands as a symbol of successful economic transformation. However, neither the colliery itself nor the adjoining new buildings like the SANAA Cube provide space for a social and cultural venue that benefits the local population.
