history

In 1882 the Schaffgotsch Group made the decision to merge the coal mines and fields located in the districts of Nowy Bytom, Morgenroth / Chebzie, Orzegów, Bobrek and Schomberg / Szombierki of the cities of Ruda / Ruda Śląska and Beuthen / Bytom . At that time, this 17.1 km² area consisted of the Paulus Mines (built 1860–1862), Orzegów (founded in 1832; south of Kronprinzenstrasse / ul. Zabrańska and west of Friedenshütte / Huta Pokój), Hohenzollern (1870–1872 ) as well as the fields "Bobrek" (awarded in 1857), "Romanus" (1852), "Romanussegen" (1861), "Carls Ehre" (1856), "Riese" and "Johannas Glück" (both 1855). Later that included Berechtsame 18.2 km².

In 1904 the exploration of the north-west field began and the Countess Johanna facility was built there from 1907 .

“Of these systems, the Hohenzollern and Countess Johanna systems are built on the north wing of the Zabrze-Myslowitz main seam saddle, the Gotthard system on the saddle itself, the Godulla system on the southern slope. The lithandra mine [...], which also belongs to the Schaffgotsch property, is adjoined to the south . "

In 1913, the total production of all plants amounted to 2.64 million t of hard coal.

Due to the division of Upper Silesia in 1922, the four facilities could no longer be managed together. Therefore, the "New Consolidated Paulus-Hohenzollern-Grube" in Gleiwitz / Gliwice for the plants in the west, Countess Johanna and Hohenzollern, and for the plants in the east Paulus / Godula and Gotthard / Karol, the "Godula SA", based in Ruda- Chebzie founded. Both continued to belong to the Gräflich Schaffgotsch works.

After the Second World War, all four pits were run as independent mines and belonged to the Association of the Coal Industry of Ruda (Rudzie Zjedonoczenie Przemysłu Węglowego).
