Heinz-Schleußer-Marina, Sportboothafen in Oberhausen
Heinz-Schleußer-Marina is a mooring facility in Oberhausen on the Rhein-Herne-Kanal with space for roughly 60 boats in a modern, well-maintained setting. The marina offers safe berths for boat owners and combines practical facilities for water activities with a clean, organized atmosphere.
The marina opened in August 2004 as part of Oberhausen's transformation from an industrial city to a leisure destination. Its opening reflected the city's commitment to creating new public spaces and green areas after decades of heavy industry dominated the landscape.
The marina is named after Heinz Schleußer, a local politician who supported Oberhausen's transformation. It represents the city's shift from an industrial past to a place where people now gather for leisure and enjoy waterside activities together.
The marina is easy to reach and sits right next to the Centro shopping mall and other popular attractions like the Sealife aquarium. Visit during daytime hours when the space is most active and all facilities are fully available for use.
The marina offers parking spaces for motorhomes with water and electricity connections, making it a practical stop for travelers passing through. This combination of boat moorings and recreational vehicle facilities is unusual for a waterfront location in the region.
