Grube Ferdinand, Sulzbächle, St Roman, Wolfach, Ortenaukreis, Regierungsbezirk Freiburg, Baden-Württemberg, Deutschland


The Ferdinand mine is located in the Sulzbächletal, 2 km south of St. Roman. The Sulzbächletal is a side valley of the Kinzig valley that branches off between Wolfach and Vorderlehengericht.
The mineralisations found here were the subject of prospecting and experimental work between 1776 and 1793, which aimed to realign the vein of the Württemberg Frischglück mine, which was in operation between 1720 and 1730, in the Fürstenberg area. Other adits include the Thorfelsen Adit and the Frischglück Adit, of which only a few remains are left.
