上に登る途中にある歴史的な場所

The "Grüner Hirsch" (Green Stag) silver mine, belonging to the Burgstätter mining district and once located about 400 meters west of the Mittlerer Pfauenteich (Middle Peacock Pond), began operations in August 1645. It was one of the few, not particularly productive, ore mines in this mining area. This mine would probably have long since been forgotten if the pond, built around the same time and named after it, had not soon played a crucial role in mining near Clausthal. The exact date of the pond's construction has not been recorded, but it likely occurred at the same time as work began at the "Grüner Hirsch," or at least before 1660. In any case, a comprehensive document from 1661, which has survived to the present day, already lists the "Grüner Hirsch Pond" as part of the water supply for the Burgstätter main drainage system.

Located on the southeastern edge of Clausthal-Zellerfeld, the Hirschler Pond is one of the most impressive visible legacies of centuries of mining activity in the Upper Harz Mountains. This reservoir is the uppermost and, with its extensive and compact surface area, by far the largest man-made body of water in what is arguably the most striking cascade of ponds in the Harz. Together with the three Peacock Ponds below it, it, as the largest of these four "blue eyes," shapes the iconic image of the historic Upper Harz water management system.

The Huttal Ditch, along with the Huttal Watercourse and the Huttal Weir, was constructed in the 1760s. It represents a technical masterpiece and a daring experiment, as no comparable structure existed at the time. The courage and risk taken by the Upper Harz miners were richly rewarded by the flawless functioning of the Huttal Ditch and its associated structures.

A highlight in the heart of the Harz Mountains entitled "View of the Harz Mountains" - is that really necessary?

A popular rest area, especially for groups - here you can sit comfortably while the others wait for the photo of the train.

Simply a beautiful view

Seating and a photo spot for the steam locomotive. The "Brocken Fox" also likes to be here, searching for edible items in the tourists' leftovers.
