The Erichstollen was opened in 1922 and mined until the 1960s barite.

Barite is very temperature insensitive and weather resistant. Nowadays you will find ingredients u.a. in brake pads and emulsion paints.

At the Erichstollen you can learn and experience something about the history of mining in the Spessart, but also in general. In addition, the place is well suited for a rest due to a brick shelter.
