Mülheim an der Ruhr

Mülheim an der Ruhr is commonly called as the "City on the River" as its city center falls exactly along the course of River Ruhr. This town existed since the 11th Century, and historic buildings dot the alleyways and green lawns along the river. The town lies on a major cycle route in the Ruhr Valley and is popular with cyclists for a stopover during long rides. The best way to explore the town is by joining a hiking tour or by boating leisurely along the river to observe quaint landmarks. This riverside town has unique geological significance and its fauna and flora can be explored at Haus Ruhrnatur, a natural history museum.
