Dungeons XVIII century
Writes blogger mishainik:
The field was discovered in 1775, from that moment she began to be used for the extraction of copper ore. Initially, exploration was completed two galleries. But, obviously, with the beginning of ore mining number of adits increased to five.
Extraction of copper ore was negligible, at 1886 it was only 115 pounds. Because of the low copper content in the ore, the mine was closed soon. It is known that in 1888 the mine in the action list is not listed.

Who is right and not to say that there was once the mine had long been overgrown with forest and mine workings swam so that only vaguely remind myself.
Well, here we are in the mine, at the entrance reinforced lining. But she is not much saved from collapse, he had to squeeze through it crawl on her stomach.
Here and there are traces of fire - because in those days people were working by the light of a torch.

Generally such historic sites bring a lot of great memories, and do not catch up with a rather monotonous modern workings.
