The bucket wheels of the opencast mining excavators are very powerful. When they are far away in the huge mining area, they are hardly noticeable. But right in front of it you can see the correct size.

Only a small part of the bike, but a considerable size!

On the edge of the Hambach opencast mine is the Forum Terra Nova, a viewing and visitor forum with an attached restaurant. From there you can watch the huge bucket wheel excavators at work in the opencast mine.
