Tips
Ore was mined here until 1914. This happened without any significant success, which is why the approximately 30 m long tunnel was named Zeche Elend. The tunnel mouth hole is a protected landscape component (LB).

A really nice place to linger with a table and bench. The tunnel even served us today as a shelter from the rain. We stayed dry.
