Zurück zum Beton: Ina Webers Trümmerbahnen-Minigolf

In the organizer's words:

Mini golf in a museum? Mini golf in the museum! The "Trümmerbahnen" (rubble courses) by artist Ina Weber invite you to play minigolf in the Museum Ostwall from April. The twelve concrete courses are equipped with obstacles from invented buildings that are particularly familiar in the Ruhr area. Their architecture is reminiscent of post-war buildings, which were seen as a sign of new beginnings. This is how the railroads got their name: Trümmerbahnen were trains that removed the rubble of the Second World War from German cities to make way for new buildings. The preferred material for the new buildings was concrete. While playing or strolling through the exhibition, you can also reflect on how much our cities have changed since then.

New train, kiosk and mixed bags

Ina Weber will develop a new train especially for this presentation, inspired by the Dortmund Health House - a well-known post-war modernist building. She is also building a kiosk where you can borrow rackets and balls to play with. And there are "mixed bags" to put together creatively!

Incidentally, the exhibition title is borrowed from a song in which the band S.Y.P.H. sings about the beauty of their concrete city. Perhaps you will also discover your love of concrete while exploring the rubble tracks!
