⚒️The Rungenberg slag heap in the Gelsenkirchen-Buer district towers over the former Hugo mine.⚒️
The slag heap, also known as the Rungenberg slag heap, rises not far from the Schüngelberg mining settlement between the A2 motorway, Horster Strasse and Rungenbergstrasse to a height of 115.3 metres above sea level and around 68 metres above the surrounding area. This makes it one of the highest slag heaps in the Ruhr area. Its surface area is around 56 hectares. The slag heap is arched between the former Hugo I / IV and Hugo II / V / VIII mines⚒️.
⚒️Heaped up from black waste material, two pyramids rise into the sky, devoid of vegetation and almost inhospitable, forming the double peak of the Rungenberg slag heap. Dark, massive structures crowned by thick tubes made of rusted steel - and the radiant light of the spotlights housed in them.
