Important information for visiting the Gasometer:

Please note that the Gasometer Oberhausen is an industrial monument of unique dimensions. This means it is not heated during the colder months, but can become noticeably warm on sunny days.

Follow the howling of wolves, get up close to a brown bear or linger among the roots of a giant tree: from March 20th 2026 to November 28th 2027, the new exhibition Forest Worlds will bring the fascinating diversity of our wooded landscapes and their mysterious inhabitants to life in the Gasometer.
