Welcome to Dortmund
You are planning a visit to Dortmund? We look forward to welcoming you! And we are quite certain that you will enjoy your stay. Because Dortmund has everything to make your stay worthwhile – a buzzing mix of clubs, bars and eateries, a fascinating industrial history, interesting museums, theatres and variety theatres, world-class football, and much more.

Dortmund is on the move! The mood for change can be felt everywhere - you will find micro chips instead of coal dust, shopping sprees instead of steel works, computer terminals instead of blast furnaces and a concert hall instead of a coking plant. Innovative technologies, forward-looking service industries, trading and insurance companies have become the economic backbone of our city. Today this former coal and steel city is known for research and learning, development and trade.

There are many ways to discover Dortmund. You will find most of them on this website. Have a look, find your favourites and come to the Ruhr District’s largest city.
