    The Prosper-Haniel coal mine in Bottrop was the last active hard coal mine in the Ruhr region after the closure of the Auguste Victoria colliery on December 18, 2015. The mine was officially closed in a ceremony on December 21, 2018, following the extraction of the last coal during regular operations on September 14. This marked the end of hard coal mining in Germany.

    Backfilling of the mine began on October 7, 2021.

    The climb up there was worth it for the view of the surrounding quiet area alone. 😊
