Around 1835, the Markus Röhling sett included numerous neighbouring mines and adits. From 1825 until its closure, the Krönung Mine and all its workings were included with the sett. The Krönung Mine, however, continued operations until 1879 and was later included with the Himmelfahrt Mine at Buchholz.
