Hiking

The ruins of the villa are still there, protected by fences (it's some constructions and the main villa). It remains an attraction for those who are "in" for past glory and the recent past (and special photos). The park also remains fairly frequented (next to it you will find some typical examples of houses of wealthier people from that time). It is a pity that the municipality allows the fence of the park to deteriorate so much. Now that the second shaft is in full swing, this park could also be integrated, perhaps? In any case, worth the effort.
