Slate mining in the Niedererbach area dates back to the Middle Ages – a "Steinkaute" (stone pit) was mentioned as early as 1413, and a "Decksteinkaute" (coverstone pit) in 1566. In the 19th century, with the advent of industrialization, roofing slate mining became economically important. Documented for the neighboring Jacobsfund mine (same area) between 1875 and 1878, an operating plan called for the excavation of approximately 2,500 meters of tunnels per year; the ventilation shaft was 50 meters deep, and the deposit was approximately 95 meters thick. The period of cessation of operations is given as January 1900 (at Jacobsfund) – this indicates its closure in this region. No precise dates are available for the Martinsfund mine itself regarding its opening, transport routes, or exact closure. The slate was typically transported via tunnel systems and railways or horse-drawn tracks for further processing. Overall, large-scale mining in the region ended when prices fell.

It is worth taking a moment to linger here by the stream and study the information boards.

Rewarded with wonderful views.
