Police control center - emergency call 110

If you call 110 in the Ennepe-Ruhr district, you will be connected to the police control center in the Schwelm district building.

From here, all emergency calls in the Ennepe-Ruhr district (except Witten) are forwarded to the relevant police station and all necessary measures are organized and coordinated to help you as quickly as possible. Specially trained police officers handle an average of over 35,000 calls per year, although the actual number of emergency calls is many times higher.

Please state on the phone:

  • Who is calling?
  • What has happened?
  • Where did it happen?

Please also wait for the police to ask you questions on the phone and don't just hang up. You may be able to provide further important information.

For the speech and hearing impaired, it is possible to contact the police by fax via the emergency number 110.
