The Lehnschafter gallery is one of the oldest parts of the mine. Several dates are engraved on the tunnel walls, dating back to 1553. A large part of the tunnel system also dates back to this time. Sometimes visitors have to crouch a little, but they are rewarded with an extraordinary experience. Visitors can choose between three routes. Each tour varies in length and you spend one to two hours underground.
