The Seese-Ost open-cast lignite mine is a former open-cast mine in the Lausitz lignite district in Brandenburg . It was named after the devastated town of Seese . The former Lübbenau and Vetschau power plants were supplied with raw coal from this opencast mine between 1988 and 1996.

history

In the area of the proposed open pit was the ground monument Raddusch Slavic Fort and then in 1984 excavations were carried out in this area. Regular operation with the two conveyor bridges F34 No. 20 and No. 25 began in 1987 and the first coal could be extracted from 1988. The turning point led to the gradual shutdown of the power plants and thus to the closure of the opencast mines. In the end, only just under 38 percent of the planned coal output was extracted from the Seese-Ost opencast mine. The first conveyor bridge was shut down in 1992 and blown up in 1995. The mine was completely closed in 1996 and the last conveyor bridge was blown up in 1997. The foundation stone for a replica of the Slavic castle Raddusch was laid in 1999.
