history

The beginnings

The colliery was already being mined from the beginning of the 18th century , after which the colliery was shut down and the mine field fell back into the open . In 1773 the legitimate name was mentioned in the documents as bat and pile. In 1779 the two entitled Flora and Fledermaus were enfeoffed by the farmers Butenberg and Linnemann. Presumably, the two authorized persons were also included in the joint rights of Flor & Flörchen. On April 25, 1793, the abbot of Werden awarded the concession to reopen the mine field, and at the same time the dismantling of the Flörchen side bank, which was also discovered, was approved. The concession to reduce trending ancient carbon Bank was granted for Ludger Straeter and comrades. As trades Ludger Straeter, Ludger Schulte, John Luthen called Thurmann, Peter Jacob Shang, Wilhelm log house, Heinrich and Wilhelm Mellinghoff Oberfliehr and another unnamed designated trades were in the documents noted. The seam Flor had a thickness of 1.57 meters, the side bench Flörchen was 0.94 meters thick.

The other years

On October 6th, 1802, the rightful owner was reported to the mining authority . At this point the mine was already in operation. The mine was demonstrably in operation in 1805, after which it is no longer mentioned in the documents of the mining authority. On April 22nd, 1808, the teacher Peter Jacob Schang sold his shares to Franz Dinnendahl . In 1828 the widow Elisabeth Christine Dinnendahl transferred her shares to the FlorFlörchen colliery. On October 13th, 1835, a very deep expectation was made on behalf of the union . A length field was awarded on February 24 and March 25, 1840 . The inspection took place on November 27 of the same year . In 1854 the consolidation took place together with the Zeche Flörchen to Zeche Flor & Flörchen .
