The Wuppertal district of Barmen was home to famous people, including the communist mastermind Friedrich Engels and one of the world's most famous ballet choreographers.

Here you will see industrial culture, interesting works of art, an astro path, “wild” animals like “Tuffi” and many penguins, get to know a Wuppertal original and find out what has become of a former swimming pool. And what is so special about Wuppertal Bratwurst? On this tour you will discover details that are certainly unknown even to many locals.

The places of interest on your tour are: the opera house, the Bergische Synagoge, the town hall, the Ruhmeshalle and of course the suspension railway.
