Wernergraben Historic Water Channel

Highlight • Historical Site

The designation Werner Stolln is equally appropriate, because ditches and rosettes determined the 4.5 km long water pipe from Weißenborn to Freiberg. It was named after the well-known mineralogist Abraham Gottlob Werner (1749 – 1817).

Today another round on Freiberg's mining history: First, the Muldenhütten industrial area, not a classic hiking highlight, but a post-mining landscape and therefore part of a mining tour.
