    A water tower which was converted into a water museum. The only thing strange was that there was no water anywhere. Everything is digital. But an extraordinary place to learn about the history of water, how many types of water we have, how the water is formed etc. The Quizzes are extremely fun

    (Translated by Google) Well, small and relatively tight. A bush is only worthwhile if you are nearby. There are different stations on each level. With a chip you open the different stations and usually watch small info films. If you stop at each station, the visit can take 2 hours. Otherwise rather 3/4 hour. The view above is nice, but there isn't much to see in the area. It's okay for a little trip. (Original) Naja, klein und relativ eng. Ein Beusch lohnt sich nur, wenn man in der Nähe ist. Auf jeder Ebene gibt es verschieden Stationen. Mit einem Chip öffnet man die verschiedenen Stationen und sieht sich meist kleine Infofilme an. Bleibt man bei jeder Station stehen, kann der Besuch schon 2 Stunden dauern. Sonst eher 3/4 Stunde. Die Aussicht oben ist nett, aber in der Umgebung gibt es nicht so viel zu sehen. Für einen kleinen Trip ist es okay.

    The outside is nice, the inside (exhibition, for 5 Euro) is boring and outdated. On the top, you can oversee the Ruhr area, which is OK.

    It will be nice to bring the kids so they learn about water and its importance. As for me I didn't find anything amazing, It is more of a Virtual museum.

    Awesome museum, you will learn a lot of things about water towers. There are a lot of interesting devices for kids and adults to play with. And this place has great panoramic views to take pictures from the top floor. And the ticket price is only 2€

Next time we will go in and visit 👍👍👍 (Original) Waren auf einer Fahrradtour, hatten den Turm nur von außen gesehen. Waren nicht drin. Sind dann weiter gefahren. Das sieht von außen schon super aus.

    (Translated by Google) The Aquarius Water Museum is located on the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path near Mülheim an der Ruhr and is well worth a visit. (Original) Das Aquarius Wassermuseum liegt auf dem Ruhrtalradweg bei Mülheim an der Ruhr und einen Besuch wert.

  • 5/5 Andreas S. 6 years ago on Google
    ok

  • 4/5 Banger Was g. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Lots of interactive options, maybe a bit too many for our taste We don't like to make decisions and rather let ourselves be showered. It is easy to see at every corner that all the fun is RWW financed. Not recommended for disabled people or wheelchair users. The information material is also available in English, but unfortunately the staff cannot speak a word of English. (Original) Viele interaktive Möglichkeiten, für unseren Geschmack vielleicht etwas zu viele Wir entscheiden nicht so gerne und lassen uns eher berieseln. Dass der ganze Spaß RWW finanziert ist lässt sich unschwer an jeder Ecke erkennen. Für Gehbehinderte oder Rollstuhlfahrer nicht zu empfehlen. Das Infomaterial ist zwar auch auf Englisch erhältlich, leider können die Mitarbeiter dafür aber kein Wort Englisch.

    (Translated by Google) Be sure to pack binoculars, apart from the very extensive exhibition, the tower offers a wonderful view over Mülheim (Original) Unbedingt ein Fernglas einpacken, der Turm bietet abgesehen von der sehr umfassenden Ausstellung eine wunderbare Aussicht über Mülheim

  • 5/5 Hans-Peter R. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Garbage collection with the RWW in the castle park and the paths to the blue bridge. It was worth it 😉😉😉 (Original) Müllsammlung mit dem RWW im Schlosspark und den Wegen bis zur blauen Brücke .Hatte sich gelohnt 😉😉😉

  • 4/5 810 a. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Yes, it's actually quite good you can go there with friends and see what the water tower is like but for a family outing Is that a bit boring for the kids so is very popular with teenagers (Original) Ja ist eigentlich ganz gut man kann mit Freunden dahin gehen und so sehen wie der Wasserturm ist aber für ein Familienausflug Ist das für die Kinder bisschen langweilig also ist bei Jugendlichen sehr beliebt

  • 5/5 Marco D. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Angelila B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) In the Aquarius water museum, children and adults have fun. Games for young and old, with stretching you can learn a thousand things worth knowing. Nice movies. Roll prospect on top of the platform. And € 2.00 for 3 hours of fun. I would pay € 10.00 voluntarily. That would definitely be worth it to me. (Original) Im Aquarius Wassermuseum haben Kinder und Erwachsene Spass. Spiele für Jung und alt, bei dehnen man auch noch lernen kann 1000 wissenswerte Dinge. Schöne Filme. Rolle Aussicht oben auf der Plattform. Und 2.00 € für 3 Stunden Spass. Ich würde 10.00€ freiwillig bezahlen. Das wäre mir die Sache allemal Wert.

  • 2/5 Stan G. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Corona rules implemented exaggerated: you have to wait outside in the cold. This is better in other museums and, incidentally, in the "address" on site is also much more friendly. In other words: you get the impression that you have to apologize for your visit. In the museum itself, the installations are very old and no longer contemporary. You should think carefully about a visit at the moment and only plan it if you have small children. Another star for the view from above. (Original) Corona Regeln übertrieben umgesetzt: man muss draussen in der Kälte warten. Das ist in anderen Museen besser und nebenbei in der "Ansprache" vor Ort auch wesentlich freundlicher gelöst. Mit anderen Worten: Man hat den Eindruck, dass man sich für seinen Besuch auch noch entschuldigen muss. Im Museum selbst sind die Installationen sehr in die Jahre gekommen und nicht mehr zeitgemäß. Einen Besuch sollte man sich zur Zeit gut überlegen und insgesamt besser nur vornehmen, wenn man kleine Kinder hat. Ein weiterer Stern für den Ausblick von oben.

  • 4/5 Lothar W. 3 years ago on Google

    (Translated by Google) Very nice water tower! Unfortunately, he can only get 4 out of 5 possible stars from me because he has not yet managed to become Reinhart Remford's Ruhrpottresidenz. Good luck for! (Original) Sehr schöner Wasserturm! Leider kann er von mir nur 4 von 5 möglichen Sternen erhalten, da er es noch nicht geschafft hat, Reinhart Remfords Ruhrpottresidenz zu werden.
