Visit a mine whose whole has been restored as in the eighteenth century and also discover its well.
The BARAMINE association opened and built an old iron mine from the early 18th century in the Barr valley at the foot of the Kienberg.
The steel produced from the rich ore mined was used in the Klingenthal forges of white arms, under the direction of the Sieur de Hurtigheim around 1736.
The mine and its well are visitable, the association BARRAMINE invites you there!
We see a mine of 46 m depth, as equipped in the eighteenth century, with wooden rolling track, mine dog, woodwork, pump ladder etc.
Steel medallions made on site in a blast furnace with the ore from the mine will be on sale as a souvenir.
Glückauf and see you soon!
