The Abraumberg is a testimony to the diligence of the citizens in this region. It is today a recreation area and nature has also made its entrance.

And yet: He is also the proof of the depletion of nature by humans. The mountain is completely made of material under our feet, plus the mined and burnt coal. Daily breaks are always possible here. Some of the over 100 heaps are larger and taller than the pyramids in Giza!
