Oberhausen is emblematic of the industrial culture of an entire region and looks back on a long, eventful history. Here, where the region's first ironworks was established in 1758 - even before the city was officially founded in 1862 - you will not only find numerous historical landmarks, but also an impressive selection of modern event locations. Today, with a population of around 210,000, Oberhausen is a dynamic location that has a lot to offer culturally and economically.
The city on the Emscher impresses with its famous gasometer, which at 117 meters high is not only the tallest industrial monument in Europe, but also an exceptional location for team events. Right next door, CentrO, Europe's largest shopping and leisure center, invites you to enjoy entertaining group activities. Companies such as KODI and Bilfinger have their home here, but visitors will also find numerous highlights in Oberhausen: from historical sights such as Vondern Castle to traditional sports venues such as the Niederrhein stadium, home of the former Bundesliga team Rot-Weiß Oberhausen.
There are a variety of event options in and around the city to challenge and encourage your team in an exciting way. In the Kaisergarten, you and your colleagues can put your skills to the test with activities such as cross golf or a fast-paced drone race. The walk-on bridge sculpture Slinky Springs to Fame provides a breathtaking view of the Rhine-Herne Canal and relaxing moments with the whole team.
