    Prisoners of war and forced laborers had to build this facility at 2,800 meters between 1941 and 1945. The National Socialists wanted to mine molybdenum in this inhospitable area. But it never came to that. Many forced laborers had to give up their lives for the project. Today you can still see the remains of the mine.
