In 1939 the "Zinnbergbau Sudetenland GmbH" was founded. With the help of prisoners of war, the facility did not go into operation until 1943. The total length of the route network is estimated at approx. 14 km. On May 23, 1945 the mine building was handed over to the state mining company Rudné doly Príbram.
The geologist Franticek Kratochvil took stock of the situation in 1946 and decided to flood the pit. For a long time there was a rumor among the population that the slave laborers had been left behind in the mine.
