Part of the European Route of Industrial Heritage, this former gas holder is now a well-known exhibition space, in fact, it has become a landmark. Exhibitions by top artists have been held here since 1994, drawing reasonable crowds with them each time. It’s worth the drive here just to take in the scale of the structure, and you can even ride a pair of elevators to a 117m-high platform for some exceptional views.
Use your Oberhausen car hire to visit CentrO, Europe’s largest shopping centre – and be sure to stock up on some unique souvenirs! There are lots of other things to see in this area, which has become a hub of entertainment. Head to the neo-classical Oberhausen Castle, spend an afternoon at the Sealife Aquarium (the biggest of its kind in Germany) or, if you’ve got kids in tow, head to the Legoland Discovery Centre (fun for adults too)!
