    Hiking

    Children used to work in the Freiberg mines as so-called Klaubejungen. They sorted the raw ore and prepared it for further processing. The boys - many of them only six or seven years old - worked hard. Dust and noise were bad for their health. The city of Freiberg took the unveiling of the Klaubejungen figure as an opportunity to draw attention to the issue of children's rights and their strengthening.

    In the past, children also worked in the Freiberg mines as so-called "mining boys."

    The Silver Trail in Freiberg is an adventure trail that leads through the city center and features eleven larger-than-life silver figures depicting the history of the city and its mining industry.
