Bergwerk Niederberg, Coal mine in Neukirchen-Vluyn, Germany
The Niederberg mine complex includes five shafts and multiple industrial buildings spread across an extensive site in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The mine operated from 1911 to 2001, beginning with shaft I in 1917 and expanding operations through shaft II in 1921, contributing to regional industrialization.
Former miners maintain the site's heritage through organized tours, sharing knowledge about mining operations and preserving industrial artifacts for future generations.
The facility contains preserved mining equipment, historical documents, and photographs that detail the technical aspects of coal extraction methods from the 20th century.
The mine's transformation from producing cooking coal to anthracite after World War II marked a significant shift in its operational focus.
