This coalmine was opened in the beginning of the 20th century. The history of this mine is not a good one, two times there were accidents were people died underground. In 1920 there were 12 miners killed by a mine gas blast. About 10 years later another 5 died at a depth of 850 meter for the same reason.
The mine, with one of the deepest pits in Europe, closed in 1935. The site was sold to a container company. Several years ago the site was abandoned. Inside and around the buildings is enough to see, many cars were found on the site. In one of the buildings we found an old piano.
The site will be demolished soon.
