The Fredholder Bank colliery was a tunnel mine in what is now the border area between the cities of Wetter (Ruhr) and Gevelsberg .
Mining history
The colliery was first named in 1560 (other sources say 1650) and was mined under this name until 1739. In that year it changed its name to "Trappe und Adler" and thus became the direct predecessor of the Trappe colliery in the municipality of Silschede , today Gevelsberg-Silschede.
