About the project

Unesco Project Mining Cultural Landscape Erzgebirge/Krušnohoří

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The historical mining site Markus-Röhling-Stolln is a visitors mine open to the public. The project includes various works focussing on the maintenance of the site, its overand underground objects and machines, and the improvement of its presentation to the public. The main focus of the project will lay on the reconstruction of historic waterworks in accordance to historic drawings under the guidance of a carpenter specialized in historic mining techniques. 

💼 What the programme involves

The works will include the reconstruction of a pumping system, for driving the water wheel and a replica of a four-man winch according to the hoisting shaft – both over– and underground. In addition, the volunteers will support to maintain the collection of historic mining machines that are partly still functioning and are used for demonstration purposes. Finally, the volunteers will improve the accessibility and visibility of the area of the Markus Röhling Mine.
