The jewel of the miner's square is the miner cast in bronze with his hunt and miner's lamp. This attractive open space was handed over to its intended purpose on July 2nd, 2005 for the first late mining shift.

The square also features one of Christina Doll's Purple Path artworks, "Angel and Miner." This contemporary interpretation of the Ore Mountains motif delicately illuminates the realities of life for children with disabilities and miners during the Wismut era.

There is also a sign pointing to an "Angel and Miner" hiking trail.
