The city of the "Pott" (the famous coal-mining, industrial area of Germany) is full of surprises. Essen is green, cosmopolitan and romantic. A glitter canon full of emotions.

Essen gets it right with its honesty, laid-back charme and Ruhrpott-romance. Our the niu Cobbles will have you glowing for some memorable days or even weeks in this former city of coal. In Essen boredom is a no-go and you won't ever get there! There is a cornucopia of art, culture, history and culinary delights. "So, buddy, listen — no need to be Johnny Newcome, just dig this city and enjoy!"
