    Hiking

    Until 1959, lead, zinc, silver and copper ore, among other things, was mined in the Adolph-Helene mine in Altlay by the Barbarasegen union. It is estimated that a total of 384,000 tons of raw ore were mined. There was also a small railway from the mine to Zell for shipping the mined ores.

    In 1957, the Adolph-Helene mine was leased to Stolberger Zink, which ceased operations two years later. A sharp drop in the price of ores made it unprofitable. Although the prices later rose again, the recommissioning of the disused mine was not worthwhile.
