Dilapidated remains of walls, overgrown foundations, and rusty metal fragments bear witness to the former activity around the Fortuna Shaft – an outlying site of the Nordfeld mine. Today, the site is abandoned but fascinating for anyone interested in industrial culture and regional history.
Tip: Pay attention to details in the terrain – some structures such as shafts, canals, or parking areas can still be clearly seen with a little imagination.
