Oberhausen City Archives initiated a research project in cooperation with scientific institutions and will host an exhibition - "Aufbruch macht Geschichte" - that will showcase the long way of economic changes from an agrarian society to a service(-based) economy. One focus is on the period from 1896-1934. Oberhausen ushered in a new epoch of urban development, aiming to become a service-oriented city while also being a driving force for private investors.Zeitschriften-/Zeitungsartikel2912053-62901326-4OberhausenStadtgeschichteStadtentwicklungStrukturwandelIndustrialisierungTertiärisierungAusstellungskonzeptStadtarchiv
