With the web application "Experience Schalke", the Schalker Markt Foundation has created an easy and digital access to what is probably the most famous district of Germany. True to its name, "Experience Schalke" invites you to discover Schalke on the spot - to see, feel, smell and taste the area between the Music Theatre in the Revier and the Rhine-Herne Canal.

About the Schalker Markt Foundation
The stories of people, hard work, players, the club and great moments come to life in one place, like a passionate and powerful beating heart. Nestled between the steel industry and historic rows of houses, the Glückauf Stadium and Schalke Markt have been brought back to life: The traditional centre of everyday life in Schalke and the birthplace of FC Schalke 04.
In addition to its outstanding sporting significance, Schalke 04 is a reflection of the cultural diversity of Gelsenkirchen and the entire region. The club's history is marked by its roots in the mining industry, where human solidarity was a valuable asset. Giving everyone a home and an identity has always been a hallmark of the club and football. This is still true today. Utilising and promoting the social significance of football for Gelsenkirchen is important to the Foundation. This is why we have established the SCHALKER MARKT FOUNDATION.
The places of origin inspire new beginnings, courage and confidence and provide an impulse for a positive attitude of the citizens, the fans and the club towards their Schalke. The entire neighbourhood will reposition itself, develop and modernise. The Foundation is playing its part. This is where German football history was written and where the heart of football still beats today.
