    Harald,
    Yes the coke ovens are still in service. They will almost till 2017. The stack you can see at the front is the only remaining thing of one of 3 the sinter plants. The 4 blast furnaces were scrapped at the late 90s, one of the gasometers is not there any more, the beautiful power station with its machines is being scrapped this year with a lot of opposition from the population. The cranes were scrapped as well early this year.
    Regards
    Ruben
