Travertinpark

The Travertinpark features old quarry equipment, crane tracks, and rails integrated into a green space showcasing industrial heritage and natural elements.

From the late 19th century until 2007, the site operated as an industrial limestone quarry, providing travertine stone for construction projects across Germany.

The park displays 14 stone columns commissioned by Berlin in 1936 for a Mussolini monument, which were never collected and remain as historical artifacts.

Visitors can access the park via two public transport stations: Kraftwerk Münster on line U14 or Bottroper Straße on line U12, with short walking distances.

The park combines an open-air museum, recreational area, and protected habitat for wall and sand lizards, featuring a natural pond below the quarry.
