    Hiking

    The mine lies south of the town and was once part of the regional mining industry. Ore was extracted there for decades, significantly contributing to the economic development of the surrounding area.

    Operation and structure: Typical features included conveyor systems, tunnels, and shafts, relics of which can still be seen today, such as rusted equipment, signs, and remains of chutes.
