The former colliery Carolinenglück (until 1870 colliery Glückauf), located directly on the A40 and the Erzbahntrasse, is one of the oldest hard coal mines in Bochum and began in 1850 …

Of course, as a fan of industrial culture, I also have to keep my fingers crossed. But even better than having an old colliery on the route is a perfect route with an old mine and that is here. The mine is located on the Erzbahntrasse and you want to drive from front to back anyway!

The entire Erzbahntrasse is very nice to drive and connects the cities of Gelsenkirchen and Bochum on a green axis with a lot of industrial culture along the way.
