history

On October 4, 1989, the Zwickau hard coal mining working group was founded in Zwickau, an association of former Zwickau miners whose task it was to preserve the traditions of the Zwickau hard coal mining area. Within the working group, the technology working group took care of the witnesses and documentation of the Zwickau hard coal mining. After the reunification, the hard coal working group became part of the Zwickau hard coal mining association. V. converted.

The members of the technology working group set up the stations on the mining educational trail, researched the background data and set up the information and display boards. On April 1, 1995, the mining nature trail was opened in the presence of Zwickau's cultural mayor Jürgen Croy .

The notice boards were repeatedly exposed to vandalism from the start. At the beginning of the 2000s, the original panels and display cases had to be replaced by stainless steel panels.

The establishment of the nature trail was supported by numerous sponsors, u. a. Bergbau & Tiefbau GmbH Oelsnitz / Erzg. (BTOe), Kies-Sand-Service Zwickau GmbH, Koob & Buschkötter Zwickau, Lasch GmbH Zwickau, Mauritius Brewery Zwickau and the Zwickau city administration.

In 1996 the educational trail was supplemented by the Bockwa mining trail .
