Kalkwerk Hammerunterwiesenthal
Kalkwerk Hammerunterwiesenthal, Limestone quarry in the Ore Mountains, Germany
The Kalkwerk Hammerunterwiesenthal mine contains four distinct sections: Päßlers Lager, Schreiters Lager, Böhmes Lager, and Schlösselweg-Lager, connected through underground tunnels.
In 1741, the Mining Authority of Oberwiesenthal recorded the first lime kiln at this location, leading to the development of construction and agricultural lime production.
The limestone extraction methods at Kalkwerk Hammerunterwiesenthal demonstrate the mining techniques and industrial development of the Ore Mountains region during the 19th century.
The reserve deposit, managed by GEOMIN Erzgebirgische Kalkwerke GmbH since 1992, maintains underground conservation work in areas affected by historical mining activities.
During the 1930s, thirty miners processed 30,000 tons of marble annually using electric hoists that replaced traditional horse winches from earlier periods.
