Hiking

In 1927 a limestone quarry was built here, the cable car transported the extracted lime 128 meters over the hill crest to the north side of the hill. There he was unloaded onto the Hüggelbahn, which took him to the steelworks in Georgsmarienhütte. The lime was mainly needed in pig iron production for better slag formation.

On this page there is a very interesting video with old film recordings of the old cable car (title: 'Ursaurier am Silbersee', from about minute 4 of the video): geopark-terravita.de/de/silbersee-und-stollen-im-hueggel

Here, history becomes tangible and tangible. The remains of the cable car, with the aid of which the mined limestone was transported from the pit.
