    The Scharnhorst colliery was a hard coal mine in the Dortmund district of Alt-Scharnhorst, which was named after it. On the former colliery site there is now a commercial area (not yet fully developed), located on the Scharnhorst colliery road.
    Almost nothing remains of the representative, symmetrically laid out and uniformly designed pit, the only sparse relic is a colliery wall, which has since been restored. In the area, however, some of the associated colliery settlements are still preserved.

    The Scharnhorst colliery in Dortmund-Alt-Scharnhorst began mining coal in 1901 and stopped in 1931, but remained in operation for cable travel and ventilation until 1975. The mine, named after the Prussian general Gerhard von Scharnhorst, achieved a maximum production of around 517,200 tons annually in 1908 with around 1,820 employees. Today there is an industrial area on the former colliery site, and almost only a restored colliery wall remains of the once magnificent complex.
