What travellers are saying
- BartvKUtrecht, The Netherlands238 contributionsIt is an excellent museum, very well documented and with very interesting objects, videos and pictures. It is just too much, so you have to be selective in what you want to see. The art selection I found less impressive, but overall it was a great experience.Written 9 August 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- John SHampshire, UK75 contributionsA great Planetarium, staff were friendly and for 9 euros a ticket, one cannot complain.
Would have been excellent but the show started 20 mins later than advertised due to late comers (i believe).Written 5 January 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Easily reachable with bus ( line 368 , Ruhr Park is last stop with that line) from the center of Bochum some 20 minutes ride. Many stores , lots of food places.
During the Saturday it was full of people, really crowded.Written 9 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Very nice and truly authentic- one of my favourite placesWritten 14 September 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Johnny19039Dusseldorf, Germany2,115 contributionsIt is really impressive how many steam locomotives, wagons, draisines, rail buses etc. can be seen. Most of them are very well restored. There are trips offered that can be booked separately. In any case, a visit to the museum is also worthwhile for people who are not otherwise interested in railways.Written 22 June 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- EyekaytooLeverkusen, Germany3,045 contributionsWe visited this stadium recently as away fans having bought tickets through our local club in advance. Parking was a challenge - we eventually found a spot on the road some distance away from the stadium. We made our way to the away fan area and went through the normal security controls. These seemed OK but we were later surprised to see how many of the ultras in our block had smuggled in their red flares - as the teams came on to the pitch our part of the stadium exploded into a sea of red... Oh well.
From where we sat/stood we had a pretty decent view of the whole pitch. The stadium isn't so big - it holds a capacity crowd of ca 27.000 odd fans.
We didn't try the snack kiosks but I couldn't avoid the toilets which were a mess - more on account of some of the disgusting fans who had trouble holding down their alcohol.
After the game, which ended in an unhappy draw, all the fans in the away block were kept behind by a major police presence - presumably to avoid too much after match frivolity. And the walk back to the car way around the back of the nearby prison assured my 10.000 steps PLUS per day!!!Written 17 April 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The collection of Animal species is average when you compare other big Zoological gardens but its enough to make you spend half a day over there. The Fossilium is something of a new experience for me, Not many Zoos have fossilium. The Food is average. The playarea is huge. There is also a petting Zoo for kids.Written 16 January 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Thorsten W31 contributionsNice little private brewery in the heart of Bochum. Five minutes walk from Bochum Hauptbahnhof. Little museum room at the beginnig of the tour.Written 2 October 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- BartvKUtrecht, The Netherlands238 contributionsTogether with some friends, I visited the 'Nazi art' exhibition, Artige Kunst. It was a very interesting exhibition, because of the juxtaposition between Artige and so-called entartete Kunst. Very friendly service. It was a pity only that we were not allowed to take pictures.Written 22 March 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- gb0921London, UK53 contributionsBochum is mostly flat, so this modest hill is the tallest thing in the area. It has excellent views of the city and the surrounding countryside. The paths are blacktop so it is handicapped accessible.Written 6 August 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
