Season Opening at Zollverein

The Zollverein Colliery is launching its anniversary year with a varied cultural and event programme, including many free participatory, discovery-oriented activities as it celebrates 25 years of UNESCO World Heritage status. To mark the season launch on March 29, the site will be hosting a series of free activities, including those in the Ruhr Museum, in the hands-on colliery, on the monument trail and in many other places.

PACT will also be opening its doors and shows the film ›A Plot / A Scandal‹ (2023) by the artist and choreographer Ligia Lewis. In it, she engages themes of “scandal” and resistance on the island of Hispaniola and the greater Caribbean and weaves together a series of historical events, political laws, and mythical narratives into a cinematic space of resistance. We also invite you to relax and unwind in the PACT foyer, where culinary delights and drink options await you.
