    The blue towers are waymarks along the "Blue Ribbon", a themed route that leads across the slag heap.
    At night, the main path is illuminated in blue by eight-meter-high lights - the so-called blue lighthouses, which are modeled on the winding tower of the Monopol mine.


    Further interesting information about the slag heap:

    When I first visited, I really wondered what all the crooked things were for. Then I got it: it's the lights. I would have preferred a few benches, but oh well.
    If you want to go up there in the dark, at least you have a bit of dim light.
