Hiking
This is an example of how a former colliery was converted into an industrial park here. Many old buildings have been preserved and reused.
A visit is worthwhile for a look into old times.

Hiking
In addition to the machine houses, the administration and wages hall, chew room, magazine and lamp room, the turbine hall, central machine hall and engine shed have been preserved. The shaft frames and adjacent parts of the building between the machine halls and the stockpile have disappeared and given way to a green area.

The Rohrmeisterei is very well preserved by its architecture today still interesting to look at. I found it particularly interesting that there is still a reward room signposted.
