The headframe is a rare and historically significant example of a Promnitz 3 type single-trestle structure, also known as a "Deutsches Strebengerüst" (German trestle framework). It's one of the few surviving three-legged Promnitz constructions in North Rhine-Westphalia and among the oldest of its kind in the region. Its half-timbered construction was originally designed for four rope sheaves, two of which are still preserved. The powerful dark red color, confirmed as its original shade during renovation, makes it visually striking.
