Event Options:

  1. Guided Tour of Grugapark (1.5 hours, English): Discover the diversity and rich history of the Grugapark, the biggest park of Essen. Grugapark is one of Europe's most attractive leisure parks, featuring a botanical garden with rare plants, a beautiful animal park, and expansive green spaces. Spanning 700,000 square meters, it offers year-round nature experiences and tranquil retreats for all ages. Originating from the 1929 Great Ruhr Landscape Gardening Exhibition, Grugapark boasts a valuable, old tree population and remains a stunning natural haven in the Ruhr region.

  2. Guided Tour of Museum Folkwang (1 hour, available in both English and German): Explore the impressive collection of one of Germany's leading art museums. The Folkwang idea, introduced by Karl Ernst Osthaus, integrates arts and cultures, promoting the museum as a hub for cultural exchange and education. Museum Folkwang embodies this vision, combining emotion, intellect, and humanism while focusing on both regional and international art. It aims to connect diverse art forms and people, fostering new and sustainable developments.
