Here was the Gahrenberg colliery, which mined lignite from 1842 to 1970. The associated buildings have been demolished and the shafts filled. A plaque tells the history of the colliery.

Cycling

Larger space to stop for a break or to plan the further route. There is also a (large & detailed) crossroads!
A large wooden board reveals information about the former mountain mine.
The way from east to west is actually called "Kohlenstraße" (also mapped that way!).
