Grubenstollen Brücken

Brücken has been the center of the West Palatine diamond industry since 1888. In the 1930s, over 2500 people were employed in the diamond polishing factories of the West Palatinate.

The mine tunnel of the Brücken coal mine recalls the extraction of hard coal that took place from 1775 to 1939. Other stone witnesses include old boundary stones from the year 1786 and the buried concrete remnants of old Westwall bunkers. The sandstone slab quarry in Ohmbach demonstrates the regional significance of sandstone slab extraction. Sandstone slabs for flooring were extracted in an underground tunnel in the 19th century. The tunnel entrance is still recognizable today. There is also a reference to the existence of various lime tunnels and lime kilns.
