Essen began in the mid-9th century as home to a women's abbey, then during the Renaissance became an important coal mining town and later a major steel production center. The famed metal-working Krupp family opened their first foundry here in 1810. One of Essen's most interesting places is the Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex, once the largest colliery in the world. Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it attracts 800,000 visitors a year, often hosting art exhibitions and performances.

A really nice and big shopping mall, offering most of the worldwide brands as well as some local ones, you can even find some nice coffee and restaurants and even the football fan shops for Schalke and Dortmund. Price are a bit expensive depends on the brand and store but it's a nice place to spend few hours for shopping
