The Kreßsieper Erbstollen is a former Erbstollen in Sprockhövel -Herzkamp in the Ennepe-Ruhr district . The tunnel was also known under the names Christsieper Erbstolln , Christsieper Stolln , Kressieper Erbstolln, Kressieper Stolln and Kressiepen Stollen . The Erbstollen was named after the nearby court estate Im Kreßsiepen , which was first mentioned in 1486 as Kreft Sipe .
history
Planning and legal formalities
On October 25, 1731, the Siepermann , Engel zur Mühlen and Johann auf der Mühlen trades were granted the right to drive the tunnel . The purpose of the planned tunnel was to solve the Eggerbank , Mühlerbank, Dreckbank and Sieperbank collieries .
Construction and operation
After the award, work on the construction of the Erbstollen began. The tunnel mouth hole was set 800 meters from Oberelfringhausen around 400 meters east of the Felderbach. It was therefore at the Hofschaft Fahrentrappe , first mentioned in a document in 837 , where the Erbstollen drains into the Felderbach. On November 1, 1745, a contract was signed between the heirs of the mills and the heirs of Siepermann. At this point the tunnel was halfway open. In 1765 the Hohebank seam was dissolved. After a construction period of several decades, the tunnel reached the first mine, the Buschbank colliery, in 1784 . In 1810 maintenance work was carried out in the tunnel.
In 1826 which reached tunnels the mine Sieper & Mühler pits . It had a length of 1,800 meters. The tunnel ran from the Felderbachtal, starting from the Fahrentrappe, from west to east to the Quellenburg. The tunnel thus ran across the strike with a slope of 1: 400. While still excavation was the construction of the 18 Lachter (about 37.6 meters) underlying heart Kaemper Erbstollens begun. After the Kreßsieper Erbstollen had reached the Sieper & Mühler Gruben colliery, the excavation of the tunnel was ended. The Kreßsieper Erbstollen was later taken over by the Sieper & Mühler Gruben colliery. With the installation of steam engines for draining the pits, civil engineering in the connected mines could also be carried out below the bottom of the pit since the last third of the 19th century .
Current condition
The tunnel mouth hole at Fahrentrappe has been restored and is now a station on the Sprockhövel mining trail Herzkämper-Mulde . On the Kreßsieper Weg there are still several heaps of the former light holes of the Erbstollen.
