The Architectural Guides series from the tried and trusted Reimer Verlag are readable, clearly organized, and set out and in a handy format. The texts are concise, informative and critical. These guides not only enumerate the more or less famous ensembles, places and buildings but also lead the way to little-known treasures, details, inner courts and gardens. The buildings are documented with informative texts, up-to-date photos and ground plans. Coal-mining and its buildings dominate Germany?s Ruhr-area. This architectural guide draws an up-to-date picture of a region which went through major changes and challenges transformed from having been one of the biggest industrial agglomeration areas in Europe.
