❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What are DASA's opening hours and how can I get there by public transport?

The exhibition is open Monday to Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and on weekends from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. The easiest way to get there is by taking the S1 S-Bahn line to the direct stop "Dortmund-Dorstfeld Süd/DASA", which leaves you right at the entrance. You can check last-minute changes on its official website.

How much do tickets for DASA cost, and are there any free days?

The price is very affordable: standard adult admission is €6 and reduced admission is €3. There is also a special "shift change" rate of €3 if you enter after 1:00 PM on weekdays or after 2:00 PM on weekends, ideal for short visits.

How much time is recommended to see the entire DASA exhibition?

Since it covers an area of 13,000 square meters, almost two football fields, we recommend setting aside 3 to 4 hours. If you want to try all the interactive simulators, you could easily spend half a day there.

What makes DASA so important culturally and historically?

It is Germany's largest exhibition dedicated to the world of work, serving as a bridge between industrial history and the technological future. Its unique approach focuses on safety, health, and human dignity in the workplace in an interactive way.

What is the best time of day or year to visit without crowds?

Weekday afternoons are usually quieter, as school groups often come in the mornings. As a large indoor venue, it is a perfect attraction to visit all year round, especially on rainy days.

Are the facilities accessible for wheelchair users?

Yes, DASA is a benchmark for inclusion and follows the principle of "Design for All." The route is barrier-free, with ramps, large elevators, and adapted restrooms available throughout the site.

What other tourist attractions are near DASA in Dortmund?

You are very close to TU Dortmund University and just a few train stops from the famous Signal Iduna Park, the home stadium of Borussia Dortmund. You can also visit Westfalenpark and Florian Tower, which are a short ride away by public transport.

What practical tips would you give to make the most of the visit?

Wear comfortable shoes because you will do a lot of walking, and be sure to try the truck driving simulator and the working historic printing press. To avoid missing any historical or technical details, complement your visit with a good audio guide.
