𝐃𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐬𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐧 The first evidence of coal mining in this area comes from 1780. The coal was close to the surface and could be extracted in open-cast mining. From 1820, four pits (called Prinzengrube) in the Tiefenbachtal were also mined in tunnels. The concession holders were the brothers Karl and Philipp Cetto from Langenfelderhof, today Wendelinushof. During this period there are talk of 136 employees who extracted almost 14,000 quintals of hard coal. In 1860 the operation was stopped because larger coal seams had meanwhile been discovered on the Saar and Blies. The miners reached the tunnel via the “miners' path”, which is now part of the Tiefenbach path. On their way they passed the source in the Tiefenbachtal and filled up their drinking water here. This spring is still known today as the miner's well. Source: Text information board

𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐛𝐫ü𝐜𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐦 𝐁𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐠 This part of the Bosenberg is called Bruchwald because there were several hard stone quarries here. The quarry, through which the Tiefenbachpfad leads, belonged to today's forest owners of the "Urweiler Erben". The first known lease dates from the middle of the 19th century. Stones were broken here until 1975. Loosening the stones from the rock layers was the job of the stone carvers. Up until the 20th century, this was extremely strenuous and dangerous work that was only done with the help of a riving knife, hammer and black powder. Day laborers and farmers from Urweiler were hired as unskilled workers, who supplemented their income through transport work from spring to autumn. In winter it was not possible to work in the quarry due to snow, ice and the risk of slipping. Source: Text information board

𝐊𝐮𝐫𝐳𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐢𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐧𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐡-𝐏𝐟𝐚𝐝 The Tiefenbach path is around 15 km long and leads around the Bosenberg in St Wendel. It is characterized by many small valleys that are crossed by rustic footbridges. At the starting point is the Wendelinushof, the former farm of the Steyler missionaries, which is still managed today. Here products from the region are offered in the local goods market and in the restaurant. The Leitersweiler beeches, about 250 to 300 years old giant trees, are a very special natural monument. They line the path into the Tiefenbachtal and offer a great view of Leitersweiler and the surrounding Hunsrück heights. Clear water still bubbles in the miner's fountain today. At the Fledermauskopf you can enjoy wonderful views of the surroundings of the Sankt Wendel region. In the distance, the 568 m high Schaumberg stands out, one of the highest peaks in the region. The view also wanders over the mountain tops of the eastern Saarland and opens up into the Ostertal. After the hike, the medieval old town of St Wendel invites you to linger. It is also worth visiting the late Gothic basilica from the 14th century, in which the bones of St. Wendelinus are buried in a high grave at the altar.

At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source: And to quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his wit and "Another poem", with a short four-line verse: "There is certainly a lot of beauty in the element, the wet. Because you can drink the water. But you can also - not." (H.Erhardt)

As a biker, you should behave calmly and carefully! The animals will thank you.
