With the opening of Markus Jeschaunig's installation Königsgrube, the collaboration between Urbane Künste Ruhr, Regionalverband Ruhr and Emschergenossenschaft for the Emscherkunstweg project has come to a successful conclusion. After several bike tours in the summer, we have now handed over all curatorial, organisational and communication tasks to Regionalverband Ruhr, which will continue to develop the sculpture trail together with Emschergenossenschaft in anticipation of the International Garden Exhibition 2027.

One hundred kilometres of river, cycle path, art: you will continue to find inspiring destinations among the 24 works of art along the Emscher – we hope you enjoy them!
