The old horse-drawn hoist was rebuilt at the Rudolphschacht in 2006. This is a replica of the hoisting system that was in use here from 1836 to 1877. In addition to the demonstration of the technology, visitors can also descend 40 metres into the old mine. However, you should be a good walker to do this, as the entire way down is done on ladders.

I drive past here almost every day, but haven't managed to visit it yet.
