This is an example of how a former colliery site has been converted into an industrial park. Many old buildings have been preserved and repurposed. A visit is worthwhile for a glimpse into old times.

In addition to the machine houses, the administration and payroll hall, changing room, warehouse, and lamp room are preserved, as well as the turbine hall, central machine hall, and locomotive shed. The headframes and adjacent building parts between the machine halls and the spoil heap 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.
