The city of Iron in Germany

Ferropolis

When the coal mines were shut down, little remained in the village of Gremmin but an immense hole and some abandoned construction equipment. Yet out of the desolate landscape grew something new: Ferropolis, the city of iron. 

Location – a peninsula in Germany, an optimal location for developing a museum.

A student of the Faculty of Architecture, Martin Brück, decided to defend his thesis with the idea of ​​a bright future. At the beginning of the new millennium, a lake was created there, excavators and other machines were installed, which became a modern backdrop for music festivals and other events.

Various types of concerts are held in this place, from heavy metal to classical orchestras and rap festivals.

In addition, equipment tours, swimming and recreation in the lake are available, and excursions for school children about sustainability and environmental protection are available. It is even possible to get married here at the local registry office.
