The Isabelle colliery in Renninghausen is a former hard coal mine . The mine was also called Isabellenbank colliery . The colliery was also known under the name Colliery Isabella in Hördeschen or Colliery Spielfeld III .

Mining history

On March 2nd of the year 1769 the expectation was put on a coal bank. The expectation also included the application to create a main tunnel in the Emsche. The coveted mine field was the size of a treasure trove and ten measures . In 1771 a cross-cutting tunnel was driven . By April of the same year, a coal bank had been opened with the tunnel, but this coal bank was not worth building . It was decided that the tunnel continue to the so-called Eight hand Banck aufzufahren . As soon as this driveway was completed, lending and surveying should be requested. Only then should the withdrawal funds be paid. On April 20, 1771, Bielefeld and Henrich Wilhelm Heitmann were registered as trades in the mining authority's records . Both trades had a different number of kuxes . A length field was awarded on February 2, 1788, after which the mine went into operation. In 1796 a new shaft was in operation and the tunnel was being driven further. The Isabelle colliery was closed in September of the following year. At the beginning of the 19th century, the mine was back in operation. The Stollenmundloch was at that time in the area of Bolmke , about 130 meters south of the Emscher . In 1842 the mine was mentioned in the documents. Before the year 1876 , the Isabelle colliery consolidated with the Hessenbank colliery to form the Hessenbank & Isabelle colliery.

Current condition

Nothing is left of the Isabelle colliery. Allotment gardens are now located on the former colliery site.
