Guided Story

Imagine the ground beneath you, once vibrating with the hum of industry and the clatter of tools. Behind you, towards Witten-Annen station, trains packed with coal once chugged away from here in all directions. The Hamburg & Franziska mine was more than a workplace; it was the lifeblood of a tightly-knit community. Did you know the miners worked around the clock in three shifts? Look to your left, where remnants of the old structures still stand. These walls, if they could talk, would speak of countless shifts and workers who rarely saw the sun rise or set.
