    The quarry is currently inaccessible, but there is a viewpoint to the north that offers a view of the quarry. It is only accessible on foot via forest paths and is really worth it !!!

      The Külpmann quarry is located on the Böllberg in Albringhausen, Wetter (Ruhr). Ruhr sandstone was mined in the quarry. The site was operated by the Külpmann family from 1932. The company filed for bankruptcy in 2012. Since 2013 there has been a sales warehouse for a natural stone dealer here. The quarry wall is a geological outcrop from the Carboniferous period that still exists today.

        In the small Steinburg there are several summit books, most of them are unfortunately already yellowed and you can hardly read anything, but there is now a new one from Micha, really great idea and if you are there you should immortalize yourself and it doesn't matter what the weather is like man there the place is magical but when it's too wet it's very slippery so watch where you step, safety first.
