    Great view of the open pit. Due to the lack of obstacles, there is often a strong wind here, so be sure to bring jackets with you when the weather is cool.

        The world's largest excavators work at the Hambach mine: they are 220 meters long, 96 meters high and weigh 13,500 tons. They can produce 240,000 tons of coal or cubic meters of overburden every day - enough to fill a football stadium 30 meters high.
