The loading station of the Dickenloh pit and was connected to the 600 mm narrow-gauge railway of the Lindenbachbahn.

Red ore and brown ore were mined in the Dickenloh pit. In 1846 the Dickenloh mine went to a Braunfels consortium. In 1871 it went to the Friedrich Krupp company. In 1944 it was shut down.

Remains of the loading station of the pit Würgengel. At operating times wrong here probably a narrow-gauge railway.
