This was once the coal port of the Min. Achenbach colliery. The coal was transported by colliery railway from Brambauer to the port on the Dortmund-Ems Canal and loaded there onto canal barges. Unfortunately, the loading crane and the harbor master's buildings have been demolished. The railway line continued towards Dortmund-Mengede station via the bridge to the north. Unfortunately, there is no cycle path there yet. The bridge and railway line are closed.
