About the city: Mülheim an der Ruhr
Mülheim an der Ruhr, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia in the heart of the Ruhr area, combines industrial heritage with a relaxed riverside setting and a varied calendar of events. Stadthalle Mülheim hosts concerts, theatre, comedy and other cultural programmes, while Westenergie Sporthalle regularly welcomes sporting competitions and special events. Thanks to its location between larger centres such as Essen, Duisburg and Düsseldorf, the city is also a practical base for visitors who want to combine a concert or match with a stay in the wider Ruhr metropolitan region.
Public transport is operated by Ruhrbahn, whose Mülheim network includes U-Bahn/Stadtbahn, trams and buses. The central railway hub is Mülheim (Ruhr) Hauptbahnhof, with connections to regional and S-Bahn trains; services to the city centre and different districts include, among others, the U18 line and tram lines 102, 104, 112 and 901. This network makes it easy to continue to event halls, sports venues and accommodation without a car, while Mülheim is also well integrated into the wider Rhine-Ruhr rail network.
Before or after an event, it is worth taking a walk along the Ruhrpromenade and Stadthafen, where urban life meets the River Ruhr. Notable landmarks include Schloß Broich, the city's oldest building, the adjacent MüGa-Park and Camera Obscura in a historic water tower. The combination of riverside scenery, historic architecture and a compact centre gives Mülheim a pleasant atmosphere for a short city stay built around a concert, sporting event or other programme.
