Five Cooling Towers

Where? L-4594 Differdange

The “old cooling towers” in Differdange are five cooling towers from the former Arcelor steelworks.

The “old cooling towers” in Differdange are five cooling towers from the former Arcelor steelworks, which were colourfully painted in 2020 by street artist Alain Welter as part of the “Art in the Loop” project to save them from demolition. One of these towers, the Hadir Tower, had already been demolished in 2014. The artwork was intended to showcase the industrial heritage and culture of the location.

FerroForum
The FerroForum was created with the aim of preserving and promoting the cultural and industrial heritage of Esch, as well as showcasing the know-how about the processing of iron and steel into products we use every day. The space, originally restored as part of the Esch 2022 European Capital of Culture programme, is a destination for all those who are curious about how metal objects (things that last) get made. Established as a non-profit association, the FerroForum space is located in the central workshop of the former Arbed Esch-Schifflange ironworks.
