Holteyer Hafen, built between 1837 and 1838 in Essen-Überruhr-Holthausen, is one of the first true harbors on the Ruhr. As an architectural heritage monument in North Rhine-Westphalia, it stands as a testament to the early industrial use of waterways. Ceasing operations in 1880, it remains a significant example of the region's historical infrastructure.
