    Entrance to the "Maria" iron ore mine... not far from the show mine

      The former iron ore mine Maria has a long history: In the early 1770s, the postmaster Franz Didier from Kaiserslautern had iron ore digging carried out in various places on the southern edge of the Donnersberg massif. Another concession was granted around 130 years later to the Hochfels union under the name "Maria". This concession from 1902 led to further excavations. However, it soon became apparent that the ore was not worth mining and the work was stopped again.
