we tried to return to Maastricht using the Arriva bus. However, it was a small bus and only 3 seats were available. My friends walked.

In the mid-19th century, flooding from the Göhl River posed a major threat to the mine in Bleyberg/Plombières: Water repeatedly penetrated the tunnels and claimed lives. To prevent this, a diversion of part of the river was requested and approved in 1861. By 1862, a tunnel several hundred meters long was built beneath the rock, keeping the Göhl away from the mine. The construction cost approximately 200,000 francs. The tunnel is a technical monument to mining engineering from an era when hazards were deliberately controlled while simultaneously harnessing hydropower. It demonstrates how work-related accidents were prevented while simultaneously harnessing resources.

The Strooberggroeve is a Limburg marl quarry in the Dutch municipality of Eijsden-Margraten. The underground quarry is located north of Bemelen under the Bemelerberg on the north side of the mouth of the dry valley Koelbosgrub in the Meuse valley. The quarry is located on the western edge of the Plateau of Margraten in the transition to the Meuse valley. At this point, the plateau drops steeply for a few meters. https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strooberggroeve

A mysterious deep hole that appeals to the imagination. Good thing there is a sturdy fence around it!

The Trichterberg quarry is located in the forest to the left of the steep Eckelraderweg, between Gronsveld and Eckelrade. Diagonally opposite are dole chambers. The quarry has been designated as a “Geological Monument”. Steep limestone walls with here and there sawn surfaces and a few small corridor remains are the only remains. Not much is known about the Trichterberg quarry. That is why Peter Jennekens, Kevin Amendt and Rob Habets wrote a source overview for the magazine of the Study Group Underground Limestone Quarries - Natural History Society in Limburg. Based on this, they cautiously conclude that the origin of the quarry must lie somewhere between the years 1846 and 1867.
