Open space creates urban space

In the last few decades, Essen has developed from an industrial city into a modern metropolis. Under the motto "Open space creates urban space", the city is now using its open space potential in order to turn urban districts and economic locations into green areas, to develop "Water in the city" as a design element and to connect the city with the region in terms of the landscape.

The steel giant ThyssenKrupp at the historic location of the Krupp Belt is a partner of this green structural change and is making an active contribution to the creation of the Krupp Park close to its new headquarters.
