A very worthwhile experience if you want to find out about the work of the miner. Driving in with the hoisting cage at 110 meters, a lot of interesting information about mining, ride on the mine train and inspection of the Ehrenfriedrichsdorfer wheel pump.

After the last mine was closed on October 3, 1990, the Ehrenfriedersdorf visitor mine opened. Here you can experience the Ore Mountains' vein mining up close. Equipped with a protective helmet and flashlight, overalls and boots, you can learn about ore mining in different eras at a depth of 100 meters. The visitor mine offers several different tours.

Hiking

Ehrenfriedersdorf, founded around 1190 as a so-called forest settlement, today with around 6,000 inhabitants, located on the B95 federal highway between Chemnitz and Oberwiesenthal in front of Annaberg-Buchholz, is one of the most well-known mining towns in the Ore Mountains.

The tin mine is an impressive complex of mining objects, excellently staged in conjunction with a diverse world of experiences. With its almost 750-year history, mainly in the area of silver and tin ore mining, the Ehrenfriedersdorf tunnel is one of the most traditional and extensive visitor mines ever.
