The Gitzkiel colliery is a former hard coal mine in Essen-Holsterhausen . The colliery was also known as the Zeche auf'm Gitzkiel and is believed to have originated from the Gitz Seyl colliery. The mine was located south of Hagenbeck, in the area of the Mühlenbach valley.
history
The first guess was made in 1744 . In the courtesy certificate , the place name was "a coal bank that has not been processed for many years". In 1765 there was another loan . Already before 1803 there was at least partial merger with the Luseharke colliery to form the Gitzkiel & Luseharke colliery. In 1804 the Bremer and Theodor shafts were in operation, in 1809 the Adelkamp shaft and in 1812 the Emilius and Heinrich shafts were in operation. Hard coal was mined in the near-surface area through these shafts . In 1813 the mine was initially closed, and from December of the same year the remaining coal piers were dismantled . In 1815 the mine was closed again. In 1846 the new award took place under the name Gitzkiel . In 1856 it was consolidated with the Humboldt colliery.
Gitz Seyl
Little is reported about the Gitz Seyl colliery. Around 1693, probably earlier, the mine was mentioned in the abbot's archive as a coal mine. In 1744 there was a renewed motto under the name Gitzkiel. Both mines are either identical or the Gitzkiel colliery is the successor to the Gitz Seyl colliery.
Luse rake
The bill Luseharke in Essen-Holsterhausen was also known under the name of mine lice rake , mine Lüßerharke and mine Luseharker Bänksgen . The mine is already mentioned in the abbot's archive between 1575 and 1800. Around the year 1730, a tunnel was excavated from the Mühlbachtal in a northerly direction. Since no sales could be made for the coals, the tunnel was left behind. Before 1803, the Luseharke colliery consolidated with the Gitzkiel colliery to form the Gitzkiel & Luseharke colliery .
Gitzkiel & Luseharke
The Gitzkiel & Luseharke colliery in Essen-Fulerum was created out of an association, probably only from parts of the Gitzkiel and Luseharke collieries. The mine initially went into operation, but was shut down shortly afterwards. In 1846 the field was re-awarded under the name Gitzkiel.
