Bergwerksmuseum Grube Samson

Braunlage, Niedersachsen

The Samson Pit in the Harz mined mainly silver ore from 1521 and was once the deepest mine in the world. On the guided tour underground you see the world's last surviving Fahrkunst, a man-lifting mechanism, and huge water wheels. The mine can only be visited on a tour, and it is about 5 degrees down below.
