The Nebo mine is a former iron mine in the Bensberg ore district in Bergisch Gladbach . The site belongs to the Romaney district . The mine field was awarded to iron on January 11, 1869 and was owned by Jews. From Mount Nebo , Moses saw the Promised Land . The authorization file of the Nebo mine was deleted by a resolution of the Bonn Higher Mining Authority on September 18, 1937. This means that it was destroyed in accordance with the zeitgeist of the Nazi regime in order to permanently eliminate the existence of the mine and the memory of this mine name. The following note can be found in the mining land register : "Closed on November 10, 1937 due to the abolition of mine ownership." The point of discovery was between the Herrenstrunden cemetery and the Großbüchel farm. There are no more reliable traces of mining to be found in the agricultural area . Nothing is known about the operating activities.
