Recklinghausen, Castrop-Rauxel, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany - EMSCHERLAND construction project, a 37-hectare water and nature experience park at the water junction of the Rhine-Herne Canal (right) and the renaturalized Emscher River (left) on the city border of Recklinghausen with Castrop-Rauxel. The ecological focal point at the confluence of the Suderwicher Bach and the Emscher will also be a future garden for the International Garden Exhibition 2027. Before renaturation, the Emscher river system was an open, above-ground sewer for wastewater, combined sewer with surface water and sewage. In the back, the Uniper power plant Datteln 4.
