This tunnel was built around 1735 to drain seepage water from the lead mines. Today, the now-disused tunnel serves as a home for bats. For this purpose, it was purchased by the Bürener Land Nature Conservation Association in 2016.

nice path to the Drakenhöhlen and further to the knight's jump

Very awesome trail. Please enjoy with caution.

Interesting insight into the history of lead washing.

Nearby, the Giershagen Geological Garden can be visited with almost 40 different types of rock from the 3 geological eras of Devonian, Carboniferous and Permian on the geological ground plan of the Giershagen district. The motto of this unique project is: "Stones tell their story". There is also an accompanying brochure. The stones are between 20,000 and 400 million years old. Among them are some very special specimens. All the stones are from the district of Giershagen, which lies at the intersection of three major landscapes, the Rhenish Slate Mountains, the Munsterland chalk basin and the Hessian Depression. Definitely worth seeing.
