Mining has been carried out in and around Berggießhübel since the Middle Ages. During the 90-minute guided tours of the mine, you can experience the working world of a historic mine at first hand. The "Marie Louise Stolln", which is now used as a visitor mine, takes you 400 meters into the mountain with only a minimal incline until you reach the former iron ore deposit, the Mother of God deposit. Along the way, you will pass areas that document unchanged situations of the old mining industry, as well as contemporary sections that comply with today's safety regulations.
The expansion of the tunnel floor as a concrete path, as well as the electric lighting and the contemporary expansion of the escape route in the former winding shaft are concessions to the requirements as a visitor operation. Access to the underground lake is safely guaranteed by a massive staircase. The preserved historical parts of the route show a compact rock structure and typical route profile, which narrows the tunnel to 65 cm wide and almost 160 cm high in short sections.
You cover a distance of approx. 1 km underground, there are no seating or resting facilities. The mine is not suitable for guests with wheelchairs, walkers or with 2 walking aids.Children are admitted from the age of 5, dogs unfortunately have to wait outside.
