In North Rhine-Westphalia, on the beautiful river Lippe, lies the large city of Hamm. The city offers its visitors an interesting mixture of Ruhr district charm and M\u00fcnsterl\u00e4nder charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
In 1226 Hamm was founded as a planned town and for a time it was also a Hanseatic town. With the construction of the railway connection between Berlin and the Ruhr area, Hamm developed into a railway junction and an industrial town. The number of inhabitants rose sharply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the Second World War, the city was badly damaged by attacks, after which housing for the population was quickly rebuilt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From the 1970s onwards, the coal mines around the city were gradually closed and the population declined slightly. Today, Hamm is still an important justice centre for part of North Rhine-Westphalia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
