An ore mine tunnel from the 18th century, you can walk in there about 25 meters, but take flashlight or mobile phone light!

The gallery dates from the 18th century and is about 35 meters long, of which 25 meters are walkable, the rest is under water. A flashlight should be available. Shortly after the entrance, the Roteisenerzflöz and a quartz passage is recognizable.

Immediately after the entrance of the tunnel you can see on both sides of the upcoming Roteisenerzlager. It formed during the volcanic activity in the Upper Devonian Sea. Hot metal-containing solutions leaked from the seafloor. The iron deposited in the oxygen-rich area of the sea as red iron ore. You can also see white quartz veins. The geological epoch of the Upper Devon was previously estimated at 345 to 360 million years.

Although at first glance a bit inconspicuous, but still a worthwhile detour near the Höllental
