Quickly to the heart of Oberhausen
If you want to shop, Oberhausen is the place to be. The city has the largest shopping centre in Europe: 125,000 square metres to be precise.
Rather soak up some culture? Then visit the Gasometer. The former gas holder is now the symbol of the city and provides an impressive backdrop for exhibitions. The winding Slinky Springs to Fame bridge is also fun. This is located in park Kaisergarten and is illuminated in all the colours of the rainbow in the evening.
With the international train ICE International you can travel from Amsterdam Central Station directly to Oberhausen. Comfort's the name of the game!
