    The Maxhütte (MH), named after the Bavarian King Maximilian II Joseph, was a steel mill steeped in tradition and is now an industrial monument in Sulzbach-Rosenberg. During its heyday, the Maxhütte employed over 9,000 people. The Maxhütte has a high monument value due to its age and because of its partly unique technical equipment, but various systems are being dismantled.

    You always have to be amazed when you come by here and see the (old) Maxhütte. The associated slag mountain is not far away and should definitely be visited when you are there.
