Völklinger Hütte

The Völklinger Hütte, a fascinating UNESCO World Heritage site, is an impressive destination for anyone wanting to experience industrial culture in a very special way. As a relic of high industrialization and a symbol of structural change, it captivates visitors with its powerful steel architecture – and is also an exciting stop on a varied cabrio tour through the Saarland.

Experience industrial history up close

In the middle of Völklingen, the massive structure of the former ironworks rises – a place where steel was once produced in large quantities. Today, this industrial monument is simultaneously a museum, event venue, and open-air art gallery. Among rusty steel, gigantic blast furnaces, and decommissioned machine halls, one can feel the pulse of the past. The unique atmosphere of the Völklinger Hütte makes the visit an unforgettable experience – not only for technology enthusiasts but for anyone wanting to discover history in the open air.
