Exhibition Mines
Due to the diversity of its geology, the ‘Waldecker Land’ has many treasures of non-ferrous and precious metals, iron and minerals as well as usable solid and loose rocks. This led to a search for treasures in the soil and, subsequently, many mines and prospects were preserved, with some of them having been made accessible to the public.
One example is the gold lode underneath the so-called ‘Eisenberg’ at Korbach – which still contains large amounts of gold.
