    On the Pockau river below the old Lauterstein castle ruins is the Victoria adit. There is still a symbolic entrance from its former mouth hole. However, you can drive a few meters further into the former "bat hole". This comes from the older mining in the 16./17. Century. It was buried for a long time, but members of the local history association did what can be viewed here today.

      The tunnel leads 10 m in a northerly direction. There it ends with a stepped end shaft and leads across 25 m to the west to a full dam which was secured by a concrete seal in 2010. The vein is part of the Bismuth-Cobalt-Nickel Formation, which may contain significant amounts of silver. In the tunnel you can find a pegimatite lens about 3.60 m behind the mouth hole on the ridge. This reddish shimmering deposit consists mainly of feldspar, quartz and mica.

        The gallery is popularly known as the bat hole. In 1847 the gallery was named the Tiefer Victoria gallery. Thanks to the extensive renovation by the Niederlauterstein local history association, the important mining certificate can now be viewed independently by visitors.
