Top 20 Caves ベルニヘンでの

👍

You have to climb a little, but you get a great view into the Swedish holes

Pfaffens Ruh is a small cave located above the Zschopau River on the left bank of the river on the hiking trail towards Witzschdorf. This small burrow, which once housed the wheel bearing of a winch, was named after the landowner who owned the property here: Pfaff. The winch pulled tree trunks up the slope for the blue dye factory. Today, a date and mining symbols can still be seen carved into the stone. But be careful, as you walk past, you can hear the sand trickling a little. Entering the cave is therefore not recommended. https://www.ins-erzgebirge.de/Pfaffens-Ruh#google_vignette

great corner, always worth a trip

本当に面白い！ 👍🏻

Former limestone quarry for the castle and surrounding area. At the time when the Swedes invaded the country, the caves served as a hiding place for the local residents

Nice big rocks

The search for silver in the mining town of Zschopau was not particularly successful in comparison to other mining towns in the Ore Mountains. But today it is an amazing witness from the Middle Ages. The pit, which is an ancillary facility of the "Holy Trinity" treasure trove, is one of the smaller visitor mines with around 250m of secured guideways. But it is precisely the fact that it reflects medieval silver mining in an unadulterated manner and remained free of the influence of the uranium ore mining of the SDAG "Wismut" that makes it so interesting. In the approx. 45-minute guided tour you will learn a lot of interesting facts about mining, geology, mineralogy and traditions of the Ore Mountains. In addition, there is the possibility of using the above-ground facilities of the association for celebrations or meetings. Among other things, the Huthaus with space for up to 25 people and the barbecue area are available. You can get an overview of the far-reaching facilities of the former old mine on the mining educational trail or on the smaller route "Wurzelweg und Altbergbau". Have fun and good luck!
