history

Information board Erbstollen Christine and Schöndelle in today's Rombergpark

The beginnings

Even before the drilling of the first shaft has been on the premises mine in the immediate vicinity of the current Rombergpark studs mining operated ( Gluckauf Erbstollen ). The existing tunnels were originally owned by Gisbert von Romberg , the lord of the Brünninghausen Castle . In 1833 the prospect for the mine field was introduced, in the same year a mining shaft with a depth of about 18 meters was sunk. In the following year, the muted field was opened up by a wing location of the Glückauf Erbstollen. In January 1835, the sinking of the Ephorus machine shaft began. The shaft was located on today's Kühnstrasse. A steam carrier was set up. On June 14th and 21st of the same year a square was awarded and from November the first coals were mined. In 1836 the Ephorus shaft reached as far as the Glückauf Erbstollen, the depth was now 12 pods. In November of the same year with the promotion started. From 1840 the mining over the Glückauf Erbstollen sole was finished.

The other years

Civil engineering began in the 1840s . The Ephorus shaft was expanded in 1841 and sunk deeper to 20 pools below the bottom of the tunnel; the total depth of the shaft is now 32 pools. In addition, the Glückaufsegen drainage shaft is being sunk. From 1842 onwards, mining began in civil engineering. In 1843 the second level was set up in the Ephorus shaft at a depth of 90 meters, this is the first underground level. In 1844 the Ephorus shaft reached a depth of 76½ lachterns. On November 20, 1849, a field extension was awarded. Before 1850, fields were cleared with the Felicitas colliery . In 1850, the rights of ownership were reassigned . In 1853, the third level was aligned at a depth of 73 pools . There were six seams with different thicknesses in Verhieb . Each seam had a different thickness, it was 18 inches for the smallest seam and 50 inches for the thickest seam . The seams were identical to the seams of the Friedrich Wilhelm colliery . In 1856 the alignment and fixture work was continued. The alignment and fixture work was continued in the following year. In the following year, too, the alignment and fixture work continued undisturbed. In 1859 the finishing and fixture work was continued. The Glückauf No. 3 was unlocked by means of a brake cross-pass shortly before the deepest of the trough. The brake cross pass had a 44 gon rise . The water inflows on the mine were 40 to 56 cubic feet per minute.

In 1860, the extraction work and the excavation of the cross passages on the building floors were continued. In the following year, operations at the mine continued unchanged. In 1862 the mine had serious problems, both surface and underground. Due to the unfavorable location to the railroad, the coal mined was not sold as desired, which meant that the mining had to be restricted. Underground the mine had to deal with several seam faults. In 1865, the colliery was initially in operation with a small mine building . Due to the lack of constructible coal reserves and because the mine has no rail connection, the mine was temporarily closed in 1868. In 1899 a solution agreement was signed with the Crone colliery , in which the contract stipulates that the coal will be extracted from the Crone colliery. In addition, the Glückaufsegen mine was abandoned in the same year.

A new start takes place from October 15 to November 1, 1908. The Glückaufsegen colliery is re-established as an association of several individual small mines with five shafts: Glückaufsegen 1 (formerly United Felicitas colliery ), Glückaufsegen 2 ( Crone colliery ), Glückaufsegen 3 ( Zeche Franz ), Glückaufsegen 4 ( Zeche Marianne ), Glückaufsegen 5 (Zeche Glückaufsegen). In addition, the daytime facilities will be converted and the coking plants of the Crone and Vereinigte Felicitas collieries will be taken over. In 1908, at Glückaufsegen 2, the shaft 1 from the 5th level to the 6th level broke. In 1910, the deepest level in the substation on Glückaufsegen 2 is the 7th level, it is at a depth of 527 meters (−400 meters above sea ​​level ). In 1911 the 6th level was further aligned, it lies at a depth of 425 meters (−297 meters above sea level). In 1913, a newly lent mining field was acquired in the northwest; the field had an area of ​​0.22 square kilometers.

In 1916, the Elisabeth shaft at Glückaufsegen 2, which had been out of service for years (shaft 1), was initially filled. The old shaft was lined with wood and was re-sunk after filling. On April 2, the shaft was acquired by the Graf Schwerin union . In 1917, on Glückaufsegen 2, shaft 1 to the 6th level was re-sunk. In 1917, at Glückaufsegen 2, shaft 1 started mining again, and Christine shaft (shaft 2) became a weather shaft. In 1918, production on Glückaufsegen 1 ceased and all shafts on Glückaufsegen 1 and Glückaufsegen 2 were abandoned. In 1919 a new individual union called Glückaufsegen 6 was formed. In 1920, a new mine was built in Brüninghausen, and the weather shaft 3 was sunk. In 1922, the weather shaft 3 is also in operation for cable travel . In 1924, the Geviertfeld Unexpected Luck was acquired.

The final shutdown of the Glückaufsegen colliery took place on April 15, 1926. During this time, many smaller mining operations - especially in the southern part of the Ruhr district - were closed due to a lack of profitability. In the years 1927 to 1929 the daytime systems are demolished or sold. The shaft 1 is covered and the shaft 2 is filled .

Promotion and workforce

The coal mined from the mine was strongly baking. The first known production figures come from the year 1838, 53,995 Prussian tons of hard coal were mined, then production declined until civil engineering began. In 1840, 36,161 tons of Prussian hard coal were mined. In 1842, production again fell to 29,363 Prussian tons of hard coal. The first known workforce figures come from the year 1850, at that time 173 miners were employed in the mine, who produced 108,063 Prussian tons of hard coal. In 1854, with 298 employees, 164,549 Prussian tons of hard coal were extracted. In 1855, 174,992 Prussian tons of hard coal were mined; this was done by 311 miners. In 1857 the production decreased slightly to 160,067 Prussian tons; the production was carried out by 318 miners. In 1867, 152,980 bushels of hard coal were mined. In 1909, with 1987 miners, 319,184 tons of hard coal were extracted. 1910 slight decline in production, 314,245 tons of hard coal were mined by 1945 miners. The colliery's maximum production was achieved in 1914 with 1590 miners; 352,200 tons of hard coal were produced. In 1915, production decreased slightly to 317,616 tons; this production was provided by 1426 miners. In 1920, 1413 miners extracted 248,005 tons of hard coal. The last known production and workforce figures for the mine are from 1925, in that year 306,939 tons of hard coal were extracted with 1,331 miners.

What is left

Service center Glückaufsegen

Today, the machine house of the Glückaufsegen 3 colliery on Am Rombergpark street is a reminder of the colliery's daytime facilities. It is entered as an architectural monument in the list of monuments of the city of Dortmund . Ruins of the Crone colliery and Glückaufsegen 2 can also be seen on Zillestrasse in Wellinghofen. Immediately on federal highway 54 there are still former spoil heaps of the same mine. In 2009 the listed machine house was extensively renovated. A new office building was built at the site of the former winding tower. A special feature is the energetic supply of the service center. The 16 degree warm shaft water of the former production shaft is made usable for the building heating via geothermal probes . Compared to conventional heat pump heating , the system is 30% more efficient.
