Alte Dreisbach

Standing here, you're in the presence of the Alte Dreisbach, a relic of Siegerland’s mining heritage. Once composed of 14 consolidated individual fields, it offers you a glimpse into the historical significance of mining in this area. Imagine the miners who worked here, extracting valuable resources from the earth. Niederschelden was a key mining site, and Alte Dreisbach remains a silent witness to that era. As you ponder the history around you, you might sense the stories of those who made their livelihoods here. To the northeast, approximately 640 meters away, stands the Fortuna monument, another emblem of the region's mining past.
