Location and spoil heap of the former Heinrichssegen pit. The historical photo included shows the former pit in full working order.
First mentioned in 1663 as Grube Platz, it was renamed Heinrichssegen in 1820.

Very good information about the history of mining in Siegerland. Nothing remains of the former tunnel.
