Dortmund has changed. Microchips have taken over from coal
mining, shopping boulevards have replaced rolling mills and the
focus now is on the concert hall, not the coking plant. Dortmund
is the Ruhr area's biggest city and

has everything as fascinating industrial heritage, a variety
of museums, plenty of theatres and cabaret venues, a
wide choice of restaurants, quality events at the fabulous
Westphalia Halls and much more besides.
