history

Large bank

The mining industry began in the first half of the 18th century. On July 19 of the year 1715 requested Johann Scharpenseel and comrades, the ceremony of a field in South Field on the Eppendorf Heide. Scharpenseel had already exposed four seams there by means of an Akeldruft . On the same day a pit field was awarded. The seams were awarded by Bergmeister Weiß. The mine was in operation from 1739 to 1763. The only known workforce figures come from the years 1754 and 1755, in those years three miners were employed at the mine. In 1762 and 1763 the mine was in yield . In 1770 the mine was closed. On December 15, 1872, Kaspar Johann Hundicker and Jürgen Wilhelm Vahrenholt applied to be allowed to put the Großebank colliery and the large secondary bank into operation. On December 21 of the same year they were given permission to do so.

Large bank and large side bank

On March 21st of the year 1773 the pit field Große Nebenbank was awarded and afterwards it came to the consolidation with the Zeche Großebank. The colliery was demonstrably in operation in 1775. In December 1783 the coal supplies were almost exhausted. For this reason, the deepest tunnel in the seam of the large secondary bank was driven up to a cliff . A plan has been drawn up to sort through these Klancke. In June 16, 1784, the head of the Brandenburg mining authority district, Freiherr vom Stein , wanted to drive into the mine . At that time, dismantling was being carried out again in the large secondary bank construction site . It was dismantled in two seams, one of which is four feet and the other eight feet thick was. However, the inspection could not take place due to insufficient ventilation of the mine workings. Vom Stein provided information on the condition and performance of the mine in his protocol. In his protocol, he particularly criticized the inadequate ventilation of the pit. In the same year a broken shaft was sunk . As of 1796 the bill was not for several years in the documents of the mining authority called. In 1804 around 1000 tons of hard coal were probably mined. In 1825 it was consolidated into the United General Erbstollen mine.

Current condition

In Munscheid, near the colliery property, there is a street named after the colliery named Große Bank .
