The colliery Hagenbeck was a coal - mine in Essen - Altendorf .

history

The colliery was one of the oldest documented mining operations in the entire Ruhr area. Already in 1575 there was the Societät der Köhler auf der Goes in Grubenfeld, which mined coal in pingen and tunnel construction . From around 1735, the name Kohlen Werck Hagenbeck appears for this company , named after the Hagenbecke in Altendorf.

The mining law union Vereinigte Hagenbeck was founded in 1836. As early as 1837 south of Altendorf (today's industrial area In der Hagenbeck ) the first shaft was sunk, which was able to go into operation in 1842 after several water ingresses. Beside the shaft 1 from 1853 to 1858 of the shaft 2 has been drilled , the 1902 converted into a main conveyor shaft with novel conveyor.

A coking plant was added to the mine in 1896, and a briquette factory in 1904 .

From 1922 to 1923, shaft 3 on shaft 1/2 was also sunk as a pure weather shaft .

The highest annual output was reached in 1927 with 517,376 tons of coal.

Shutdown

The Mülheimer Bergwerks-Verein had already taken over Vereinigte Hagenbeck in 1898 . The coal mine of the colliery was shut down in 1928, and from then on the authorized persons were dismantled via the Mülheim Rosenblumendelle colliery . Until the Rosenblumendelle colliery was closed in 1966, the Hagenbeck 2 and 3 shafts remained at this colliery.
