Name(s) in local language(s):
Tiefstollen
The Tiefstollen (German, literally "deep adit" or "low adit") is located in the Rauenthal valley.
It was the lowest adit of the district and the remains can still be seen today. In the early 1990s some restoration works were done and also an archaeological topography of the site.
June 2011: All the work done to uncover and protect the site was useless. I know exactly where the site is but was unable to find it again. Now heavily overgrown with brambles and other weed. Medium-sized trees and bushes are growing on the site.
