history

The beginnings

The Secretarius mine already existed around 1725. However, the mine was never of great importance. At this time (1725) the first arable fragrance was created in the area of ​​the city of Essen. Simultaneously with the operation of this field smell, a municipal coal mining ordinance was issued. The owner of the mine was the town secretary Krupp. Krupp was also enfeoffed with the Hobeisenbank and the Fettlappen colliery . In 1750 an aqueduct (ackeldruft) was opened near the Limbecker Tor . At that time, the Voss-Dickebank coal works were located in this area. In 1752 the Landskrone seam was approached. Around 1756 the mine field was opened up by means of a shaft . Mining was done in the Hobeysenbank, Fettlappen, Krabbenbank, Rieckenbank and in the area of ​​today's Schederhof in the Backstadtbank seam. After the owner of the mine died, the operation was closed and the mine abandoned. After Hinrich Wilhelm Krupp's death, the mine fell back to the city of Essen.

The other years

On April 28, 1764, the mine was taken over by the Gesellschaft zum Fettlappen. On June 28 of the same year, the new loan to Hülswitt by the City Council of Essen took place. Then it was renamed Secretariusak. In 1773, Johann Heinrich Waldthausen was noted in the documents as the feudal bearer . In the same year the three feuded seams were dismantled. The seams were on a common tunnel in Verhieb taken. The tunnel was the Secretariusak, the construction height was 13 meters. In 1789 it was feared that the operation of the mine might deprive the Kaupen water of the Kettwiger Tor from its inflow. For this reason, the continued operation of the mine was banned by the city council. In 1803 the mine was put back into operation. However, there was only a small amount of extraction from the Fettlappen seam; the remaining part of the mine workings had probably already sunk . After the secularization of the Essen Monastery , the Secretariusak trades endeavored to unite the mine with the neighboring mine Zur Hoffnung . On February 19, 1805 , the Secretariusak colliery consolidated with the Zur Hoffnung colliery to form the United Hope & Secretarius Aak colliery .
