    The mining rights were granted in 1803 for a day shaft, in 1830 and 1861 for the tunnel.
    Mining of copper ore, pyrite and iron ore;
    Length 130 m and 25 m, shaft depth approx. 68 m.
    End of dismantling in 1875

    The dilapidated tunnel mouth hole was reopened in 1944. Until the end of the war, the tunnel offered the residents of the Hinterdorf protection from bombing attacks and served as an emergency practice for Dr. Pohl in Mudersbach. Then the tunnel mouth hole fell into disrepair.

    In 2009, as part of the new road construction on Karl-Dresler-Strasse, the dilapidated tunnel entrance to the Bullenkamp tunnel was rebuilt by the men of the mining group. The tunnel mouth hole was lined with local quarry stones. In October 2010 a support with "German door frames" was installed over a length of approx. 3 Lachter. The tunnel gate will be used in April 2013.
