Explanation of the procedure at the visitors area in the Steinkaulenberg Mine and in the historic "Weiherschleife" grinding:
Since registered groups often arrive late due to all sorts of circumstances, it is essential that our guests are guided in the order in which they arrive. In the case of heavy visitor traffic, waiting times of up to 60 minutes are possible and can not be avoided. We ask for your understanding! Your team from edelsteinminen gmbh.
