    Tips

    June 2, 2019

    The earliest evidence of mining in our area comes from 06.06.1351 on the sale of an iron mine on the Mittelberg. From then on, mining on ore went steadily upwards. At first, only the iron ores were important, field names such as e.g. The "Eisenhohle" are still evidence of this, so soon the copper ore (lead mountain) was added.
    From the information stone of the Eisenhohle we look at the washing meadow, here was once a recreation with building.
