The Rosalie colliery in Essen-Bredeney is a former hard coal mine . The mine was located in the so-called Löwental and was also called Hermanns Stolln around 1839 . The predecessor mine was the Plattenberg colliery .
Mining history
The Plattenberg colliery was already in operation in 1667. In 1672 the mine was mentioned in an ordinance by the Abbot of Werden . In 1717, the mine resulted in a dispute over the Berechtsame with the bill Teute. In 1807 the mine was closed in time limits . The mine was back in operation from September 1812. First, day drive 1 and day drive 2 were dealt with . Extraction started again from October of the same year . Hard coal was mined in the following years . In 1827 the Casper open-cast mine was in production. From October 1828 the mine was out of order. After 1828 the Plattenberg colliery was taken over by the Rosalie colliery. On October 3rd, 1849, a length field was awarded to the Rosalie colliery . The Rosalie colliery in Heissiwald was in operation from 1854. Two tunnels were in operation a year . The Längenfeld Plattenberg was awarded on August 25 of the same year. In 1862, the deposits above the tunnel floor were almost completely depleted. At that time the mine belonged to the Kettwig mining area . The mine was still in operation until 1870. In 1871 the Rosalie colliery was closed.
