Erzvater

Normaly, a visit in a mine begans at the entrance of the mine. But this mine isn't a normal mine. So the first stations you will find on a nice playground. You should park next to the playground and walk the rest of this short Multi.

By the headcoordinates (N50°49.218´ E008°26,618´) you are next to a stone circle. Count the stones of the circle and set the number to A.

2. Station is also on the playground at N50°49,209´ E008°26,588´. How many stages you have to go, to go on top?
Set this number to B.

The 3. Station – N50°49,246´ E008°26,509´ was the entrance or the way out of the mine. On this plac where long years a debris place. Then here is build a well.
The Number of seats become C.

Now you come to the mine. Or what the mine was.

Station 4 – N50°49,356´ E008°26,511´ was the stockpile of the mine. Nearby you see some iron staffs which enclosed the mine entrance. The two ways into the mine are allready closed years ago.

This was the headquarter of the mine from the orefather (erzvater). The mine goes nearly straight from in to out.

In a distance from 70 meter you find an iron current mast. Here are two numbers, parted by a line.

These are D / E.

The coordinates for the Cache you will calc in this way.

N 50° (D+B) , ((E+87) / (A-1))´


E 008° ((A * C) – 10) , (A+B+C+D+363)´



1926 became Heinrich Teutsch (Erzvater) the rights in the Tale to get the lead ore. At the mine where sometimes up to 15 men in work.
Until 1948 the mine was working. In the years after 1948 the Erzvater works still alone in the mine.

Today there is not much from the mine to see.

If you are going down to your knees and search for some ore you can find some little exposes of te ore. As we where children, we found some.

We wish you a lot of fun at the places.

Greetings
