Brown coal was mined in the Bransroder tunnel until 1929. For conveyance and transport, a chain railway (slide) was laid down into the valley to the service road between Laudenbach and Uengsterode, the remains of which can still be seen in places today.

The structure was uncovered, secured and restored in 2008. It has been a listed building since then and is also winter quarters for bats.

In 1622, the first mining in the Bransroder area took place with the excavation of the "Alte Häuser Stollen", which was in operation until 1700. As a replacement for this, the excavation of the "Bransroder Stollen" began in 1696, but was finally stopped in 1929.

The tunnel portal, which had been buried in the meantime, was uncovered, secured and restored in 2008. The building is now a listed building and is home to bats in winter.
