Engelsburg colliery in Bochum-Eppendorf (Germany) !

 

Engelsburg colliery !


You can see the wooden tower on the left side of the picture that was used to sink a shaft. In the background there is a large Malakoff tower, a special kind of shaft tower built of bricks. Another metal tower was integrated into the Malakoff tower, as it seems. By the way: The exact translation of the colliery's name is "Angels' Castle".
