    The winding tower of the St. Anna Shaft, closed in 1974, is a Sulzbach-Rosenberg landmark and a symbol of identification for the residents. It is the only remaining visible evidence of iron ore mining in Sulzbach-Rosenberg. Since 2017, the steel structure has also been designated a historical monument. The shaft had a depth of 110 m to the winding level. The mine was inaugurated in 1958, and the shaft winding system was designed for a daily capacity of 2,500 t.

    The headframe is the remnant of the nearby Maxhütte. The headframe is now in the middle of a residential area

    The winding tower of the St. Anna shaft with its information boards is really worth seeing.
