        A bright red pulley as a memorial and reminder of the former Pörtingsiepen colliery in the Fischlaken district of Essen⚒️
        The coal mine was shut down in 1973. The facilities of the colliery were almost completely dismantled. The area of the pit I/II was largely renatured.
        The footpath and cycle path along the former colliery site is very well developed and can be used with all bicycles.
