Top 20 Caves 크로이츠탈 주변

It was roughly at this spot that a long-time resident of Unglinghausen tried his luck on his own. The mine proved unprofitable. The reconstruction of the mine entrance and the entire design were carried out by volunteers from the Unglinghausen Citizens' Association and the Unglinghausen Forest Cooperative. Today, this area is a decorative section of the Unglinghausen themed trail, which runs approximately 50 meters further uphill.

Directly opposite this mini cave, a path to the right leads over a newly constructed footbridge to a small, hidden forester's house with a pond. This means that this cave was probably previously used as a game cellar. The cave was specially constructed, which can be clearly seen from the concrete ceiling.

"... Station 15: “Glücksanfang upper tunnel” mine – In the upper tunnel of the “Glückanfang” mine, from 1722 onwards, in addition to iron, lead, silver, copper and zinc ores were mined in two 1 m thick and 80 m long corridors .

"... Station 21: “Theodora” mine and hut – One of the small mines on the Martinshardt, which was run by an independent union, was the “Theodora mine” in the Zitzenbachtal near Ferndorf. After 8 years of painstaking work, in When people looked in vain for ore, the tunnel was abandoned. 266 m of sections 2 m high and 1.20 m wide were excavated in vain and almost 600 cubic meters of rock were unearthed. The “Theodora” mine is now next to the Stahlberger Erbstollen the only still accessible pit in the Müsen area..." https://www.wittgensteiner-wanderland.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/kindelsbergpfad.pdf

@Andre, there was already a highlight here. The original is called mini cave.

The cave is freely accessible, but not particularly deep. It's only a few meters into here. A headlamp or flashlight is necessary for this. Directly opposite is a Great Cabin by a Small Pond. The hut is locked, but you can take a great break on the outside benches.

Perhaps earlier thought of "natural cooling" when hunting. But should someone really have done this job because of it ???

It looks like it was used as a storage cellar or something. In the rock you can still see two remains of the hinge, it looks as if there was a door in front of it.
