Bergwerk Peißenberg, Coal mine and architectural heritage monument in Peißenberg, Germany.
The mine complex includes several historical structures such as the Beamtenwohnhaus, Maschinenhaus, and a network of underground tunnels extending over 100 kilometers.
The mining operations commenced on May 8, 1837, and continued until March 31, 1971, reaching peak employment of 3,913 workers in 1963.
The Glückauf Mining Museum presents exhibits across 14 rooms, detailing the development of coal extraction methods in Upper Bavaria through artifacts and machinery.
Visitors can explore the underground tunnels via mine train and receive guided tours from former miners who share direct knowledge of mining operations.
The mine site contains a preserved blasting chamber where demonstrations recreate mining conditions with authentic environmental effects.
