A delightful mix of old mining and natural cave awaits you on our expedition to the Marienglasschlotte. The trail leads past geological features and 19th and 20th century mining operations. The "Schlotte auf dem Segen-Gottes-Stollen", discovered in 1854, awaits you with its amber-coloured crystal bands. Finally, we invite you to a traditional half-shift underground.
