      V. Station: "Simon of Cyrene"

      A man coming home from working in the fields helps Jesus carry the cross. It is Simone of Cyrene.


      Mining relic: "Friction stamp with Van Wersch cap"

      Two-part metal stamp, the sliding of which is controlled by friction elements. To support the hanging wall (ceiling), Van Wersch caps were placed on the stamps in the longwall.


      Key quote:

      "Solidarity - this is not a foreign word for the people of the Ruhr area! Responsibility for one another and responsibility before God is still a lived and proven reality here." [Pope John Paul II, May 2, 1987, Prosper-Haniel mine]

        Unfortunately, all the installations have been destroyed by storms, and almost all the paths are damaged. Climbing is no longer worthwhile.
