Top 5 Caves ノイウハウゼン/エルツゲビルジでの

You just have to have been here ;-)

Mouth of the Michaelis tunnel in the Mortelgrund near Sayda in the Ore Mountains valley. The mine was built on a vein bearing copper and silver and produced a certain yield, especially in the 17th and 18th centuries.

you can take a stop here

The mouth of the tunnel "Reich - Hoffnung - Morgengang" is located on Bergmannsweg No. 5 and is a cultural monument in the Free State of Saxony.

Old tunnel, currently open - bring flashlights! Altogether maybe 50 .. 60m deep, halfway down a cave with a water basin (why?) and a blind second passage. The main course ends after another 30m. Attention: Stollen is wet (suitable shoes!), it drips from everywhere.

The mining area around Clausnitz goes back to 1460. From 1860 to 1866 the St. Michaelis tunnel was excavated in order to reach the King Solomon's pit and drain the water from there. Mainly copper ore was mined. 2001 - 2004 a 400m long section of the tunnel was renovated by the Freiberg mountain security and made accessible to the public again.

The Nikolai Stollen in the municipality of Sankt Katharinaberg is the largest and most famous tunnel in the Bohemian part of the Erzgebirge. In the Middle Ages silver and copper ores were mined here. The corridors reach a depth of 157 m. The tunnel was shut down in the 18th century and in the thirties of the 20th century a mine museum was built in its rooms. During World War II he served as an air raid shelter for the surrounding residents. For treasure hunters he hides a big secret - it is said that there is a treasure of immeasurable value in the Nikolai Stollen - the vanished Amber Room. Who reveals the secret?

Anyone wishing to visit the tunnel must make an appointment beforehand.
