  • The entrances to the red iron ore mines "Gottlieb Worms Bau" and "Christian Allewelts Bau" show the mining history of the Harz region. Ore was not only mined in large mines, but also close to the surface in many small mines, where often only one or two miners dug.
    Information boards along the Wilhelm Grote Trail provide information about this and the discovery of the element selenium.
