HOME IS WHERE I live and feel GOOD

CASTROP - RAUXEL , a small City with about 80.000 inhabitants . Located between the wellknown CITIES of BOCHUM AND DORTMUND .
It is placed in the so called - RUHRGEBIET -
This is the AREA of the industrial Cities along the RIVER RUHR .

WHAT I LIKE MOST ON MY HOMETOWN IS YOU CAN HAVE QUITE AND RELAXING TIME IF YOU WANT , IF NOT YOU LL GO TO THE GREATER CITIES TO HAVE MORE NIGHTLIVE , AS OUR SPEKTRUM ( ROCK HALL ) ,

BOCHUM AND DORTMUND ARE ONLY ABOUT 10 MINUTES FAR AWAY FROM CASTROP

I lived in Castrop Rauxel, when I was a very small child. I never thought of C-R as an attractive city, but now I changed my mind.

Hi Richard, We didn't see very much of Castrop Rauxel when we went to VW Forum last year. Having seen your pages I wish we'd had longer to explore :o( best wishes, Eddi

Castrop-Rauxel looks like a peaceful place! Incidently, is your picture taken in Sinai? I think I recognise the place! Dan
