The Ruhr area is no longer what it used to be associated with. The city of Herten, once the largest mining town in Europe and the second largest city in the world without its own train station now has almost 40% green spaces, a listed half-timbered ensemble from the 15th century, as well as two water castles. Nowadays, there is even a train connection again, which is said to sometimes actually work.

Die Stadt Herten, einst größte Bergbaustadt Europas und zweitgrößte Stadt der Welt ohne eigenen Bahnhof verfügt über fast 40 % Grünflächen, ein denkmalgeschütztes Fachwerkensemble aus dem 15 Jh. sowie über zwei Wasserschlösser. Mittlerweile ist sogar wieder ein Bahnanschluss vorhanden, der manchmal sogar funktionieren soll.
Hier sieht man das am Rande der Innenstadt in einem alten englischen Landschaftsgarten gelegene Schloss Herten, das 1376 erstmals urkundlich erwähnt wurde.
