history
The request for encouragement from July 6, 1847 for calamine and iron with the name Glückauf was repeated several times without being awarded . On July 28, 1854, there was a request for encouragement in the name of Uhland, which was also made several times. Finally, on February 25, 1861, the award took place under the name Josephinenzeche for the extraction of calamine and galena . No information is available about the operating activities.
Location and relics
If you walk just a few meters into the Oberhombach street , there is a mountain spur to the south, overgrown with lots of shrubbery and trees. Here was the former Josephinenzeche. Today the area is used for agriculture. The area, which is difficult to access, has several, partly larger pings and smaller heaps.
