    Tips

    November 1, 2024

    In the 18th century, mining played an important role in the Alpirsbach monastery. In the area of today's Alpirsbach town center, the Wolfgang and Eberhard mines brought in the most revenue. Two parallel barite veins contained rich cobalt ores in some places.

    The ore veins were opened up by extensive mine works, which, with the exception of the surface shafts, have been preserved to this day. Mining and blue dye production contributed significantly to Alpirsbach's economic boom at that time.
