Starting at the core of the city the cultural path leads past the Markt church, the cathedral with its treasure chamber, the spectacular newly constructed adult education centre and the most beautiful German cinema, the Lichtburg. It continues past the Aalto theatre and Philharmonic Hall, through City Park and into the museums quarter.

Small blue illuminated squares placed along the pavement also guide the cultural visitor. The cultural path visually connects city art, architecture and sculptures and inspires a new perception. Essen‘s culture is not elitist; it belongs to the picture of the city, to its history and life. The illuminated path invites you to take part in an exceptional tour of discovery through the Ruhr metropolis.
