    The Heinrich Tunnel near Zweifall was operated from 1847 to 1866. The tunnel is located in the Bunten slates with conglomerates from the Gedinnian (Lower Devonian). The rocks are red and green, fine-sand siltstones that are schistose.
    Iron ore was mined. A small panel explains the ore mining and hammer mills in the region.

      Iron ore used to be mined here and information is available on display boards. You can also recognize it very well by the brown deposits in the watercourses.

        The ore gallery is located a little off the main path. Once you have completed the path, you can see the ore gallery and the information board.
