Lore der Zeche Eiberg

In front of you is the memorial cart of the Eiberg Mine. It stands as a tribute to the important mining heritage of the region. Eiberg, once an independent community until 1919, played a significant role in shaping the outskirts of Bochum and Essen through its mining activities. This cart symbolizes the labor and daily life that economically and culturally molded the area. If you look north, you might spot the main house of the former Brandhof. This area speaks of a time when mining was central to the community, a legacy now preserved in this memorial.
