Graben Tour, Mining trail in Mittelsachsen, Germany
The Graben Tour extends for 3.557 kilometers through the northern region of Freiberg, following an ancient water channel from Krummenhennersdorf to Reinsberg.
Between 1844 and 1847, engineers constructed this water management system to power the mechanical wheels at multiple mining shafts in the Rothschönberger Stolln area.
The trail presents industrial remnants including engine houses, wheelhouses, and shaft structures that reflect the technical advancement of Saxon mining operations.
Visitors can start their exploration at Wünschmannmühle in Krummenhennersdorf, where marked paths guide them through both underground and surface sections of the route.
The water channel system incorporates artificial moats that transported resources through the mining complex, with sections still visible along the current hiking path.
