At the foot of the rock wall rising north of the town center, behind the restaurant (formerly Pizzeria La Bella), there are two tunnel mouths, each of which initially leads a few meters into the mountain. Both are connected by a cross tunnel, from which another tunnel leads a few meters into the mountain.

The slate tunnel (it is unclear whether only slate or also ore was mined) leads about 10 m deep into the mountain at the foot of the slope. To the left, there appears to be another tunnel at the end, but this is completely filled with clay and slate rubble. Above the tunnel there is a small slate quarry, the rubble heap of which can be seen from the pond.

I walked past it a whopping 55 times before, on the 56th attempt and with minimal February vegetation, I noticed the gate off the path. The tunnel entrance is very low and secured with a padlock. Exploration 11/22: Actually, only the entrance is a bit low. After that, it's easy to descend 60 meters into the mountain, slightly crouching. After 40 meters, a small mining chamber branches off to the left, followed by a shaft leading vertically down about 10 meters. Roughly estimated, it's about 6 meters. With an opening of about 1x1 meters, a misstep would be impossible to catch and could cause significant damage. It's quite possible that there's a side branch in the remaining 10 meters, and there's definitely a tunnel leading off to the side at the bottom of the shaft. This largely unknown tunnel is one of the sites of the Wellmich-Werlau vein train, which includes, for example, the Werlau shaft https://www.komoot.de/highlight/1371659, the Gustav shaft https://www.komoot.de/highlight/3100074 and the Camilla mine https://www.komoot.de/highlight/1099786 and which ends not far from the Eid mine on the Geierberg near Alterkülz https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grube_Eid.
