(Translated by Google) Good luck. I took part in the tour today with my family. The tour lasted about 2 hours and my daughter and my parents were very enthusiastic. The mountain guide was very friendly and explained/told a lot, and we learned a lot. It's definitely worth it. It's free for children up to five. (Original) Glück auf. Ich habe heute mit meiner Familie an der Führung teilgenommen. Die Führung dauerte ca. 2 Stunden, und meine Tochter sowie meine Eltern waren sehr begeistert. Der Bergführer war sehr freundlich und hat viel erklärt/erzählt, und wir haben eine Menge gelernt. Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall. Es ist für Kinder bis fünf kostenlos.
(Translated by Google) Everyone really gets their money’s worth in the Kilianstollen. There is a lot to see here on the almost 2 1/2 hour tour. Of course, the ride on the mine train is the little highlight, but it also shows you the hard work of the miners who have wrested its treasures from the mountain over a long period of time. Good luck from the Ruhr area ⚒️ (Original) Im Kilianstollen kommt wirklich jeder auf seine Kosten. Hier gibt es auf der fast 2 1/2 Stündigen Führung viel zu sehen. Natürlich ist die Fahrt mit der Grubenbahn das kleine Highlight aber auch sonst wird einem hier die harte Arbeit der Bergmänner nahegebracht, die über lange Zeit dem Berg seine Schätze abgerungen haben. Glück auf aus dem Ruhrgebiet ⚒️
(Translated by Google) Besucherbergwerk Kilianstollen – Guided Underground Mine Tour On October 11, 2024, I joined the Besucherbergwerk Kilianstollen mine near Niedermarsberg with a guide. I rode the original miner’s train in the galleries dating back to 1842 and explored the “Oskar” and “Friederike” sections. It was fascinating to encounter minerals in the galleries that bear the colors of copper, sulfur, iron and manganese. The guide explained in detail both the geological structure of the mine and the hard life of the miners. It was a constant 10°C inside all year round — I was comfortable because I had warm clothing and sturdy shoes. This historical and natural experience was an incredibly impressive adventure for both underground exploration enthusiasts and history enthusiasts. (Original) Besucherbergwerk Kilianstollen – Rehberli Yer Altı Madeni Turu 11 Ekim 2024’te Niedermarsberg yakınlarında, rehber eşliğinde Besucherbergwerk Kilianstollen madenine katıldım. 1842’den kalma galerilerde, orijinal madenci trenine binerek “Oskar” ve “Friederike” bölümlerini keşfettim. Galerilerde bakır, kükürt, demir ve manganez renklerini taşıyan minerallerle karşılaşmak büyüleyiciydi. Rehber, hem madenin jeolojik yapısını hem de madencilerin zor yaşamını detaylarıyla anlattı. İçeride yıl boyu sabit 10 °C vardı — kalın giysi ve sağlam ayakkabı olduğu için rahat ettim. Bu tarihî ve doğal deneyim, hem yer altı keşif tutkunları hem de tarihi meraklıları için inanılmaz etkili bir macera oldu.
(Translated by Google) I can only highly recommend a tour of the Kilian tunnel to anyone who is interested in how people lived and worked underground in the past. The tour takes place on weekends at 2 p.m. and lasts about 2 to 2.5 hours. Prior registration is mandatory, by phone or email. Using mannequins, various situations are shown that the workers there previously (presumably) experienced. There are also a few original exhibits left (most of them were stolen after WWII). The dismantling and other procedures are well explained. The two gentlemen from the club who take care of everything there explain everything very well and are very friendly. A highlight was the ride on the mine train. It's about 10°C in Stollen, so you should wear at least long trousers and a sweater. Pants and shoes get dirty, so don't wear anything white. Wearing protective helmets is also part of the program; these are definitely needed as you have to bend over in various places. We really enjoyed our time. (Original) Allen die das frühere Leben und Arbeiten unter Tage interessiert kann ich eine Führung im Kilian-Stollen nur bestens empfehlen. Die Führung findet am Wochenende um 14 Uhr statt und dauert ca 2 bis 2,5 Stunden. Eine vorherige Anmeldung ist Pflicht, telefonisch oder per Email. Gezeigt werden anhand von Schaufensterpuppen verschiedene Situationen die die Arbeiter dort früher (vermutlich) erlebt haben. Es sind auch noch wenige Originalexponate vorhanden (das meiste wurde nach dem 2.wk geklaut). Der Abbau und sonstige Verfahren werden gut erklärt. Die beiden Herren vom Verein, der sich dort um alles kümmert, erklären alles sehr gut und sind sehr freundlich. Ein Highlight war die Fahrt mit der Grubenbahn. Es sind ca 10°C in Stollen, man sollte also mindestens eine lange Hose und nen Pulli anziehen. Hosen und Schuhe werden dreckig, also nichts weißes anziehen. Auch gehört das Tragen der Schutzhelme zum Programm, diese werden definitiv gebraucht, da man sich an diversen Stellen gut bücken muss. Uns hat die Zeit sehr gut gefallen.
(Translated by Google) You get a very nice tour through the tunnel! The tour in small groups is great and the ride on the mine train is a real experience (warning! It gets loud!). Warm clothing that can get dirty is recommended. Many thanks to the nice gentlemen for the special experience! (Original) Man bekommt eine sehr schöne Führung durch den Stollen! Die Führung in kleinen Gruppen ist spitze und die Fahrt mit der Grubenbahn ein echtes Erlebnis (Achtung! Es wird laut!). Warme Kleidung, die auch dreckig werden darf, ist zu empfehlen. Vielen Dank an die netten Herren für das besondere Erlebnis!
(Translated by Google) Very interesting to see everything. We had a guided tour with a small group. The volunteer leader explained everything very well, thank you again. We were there with 2 children, 6 and 9, and we really enjoyed it too. (Original) Sehr interessant alles zu sehen. Wir hatten eine Führung mit einer kleinen Gruppe. Der ehrenamtliche Leiter hat alles super erklärt, Dankeschön nochmal. Wir waren mit 2 Kindern da, 6 und 9 und denken hat es auch sehr gefallen.
(Translated by Google) A very interesting visitor mine. The tour lasts a good two hours; the former copper mine is explored on foot and by mine railway. You should dress warmly, it's only 8 degrees down there and wear weatherproof shoes, they can get wet! but a great experience (Original) Ein sehr interessantes Besucherbergwerk. Die Führung dauert gut zwei Stunden, zu Fuss und mit der Grubenbahn wird das ehemalige Kupferbergwerk erkundet. Man sollte sich warm anziehen, dort unten hat’s nur 8 Grad und wetterfeste Schuhe, kann nass werden ! aber ein tolles Erlebnis
(Translated by Google) A very worthwhile visitor mine. The engaging guided tour takes you through the former copper mine, taking over two hours on foot and by mine train. Be sure to dress warmly; it's chilly down there! (Original) Sehr lohnendes Besucherbergwerk. Über zwei Stunden zu Fuss und mit der Grubenbahn wird während der engagierten Führung das ehemalige Kupferbergwerk erkundet. Unbedingt warm anziehen es ist kühl da unten!

Amazing views! You can enter there for free. Worth seeing!
From the church you can walk to this small tower. It provides you with a beautiful view of the surroundings. The climb to the roof is easy.
(Translated by Google) You have a great view from the tower. Clean and well-kept paths and “walls”👍 (Original) Vom Turm aus hat man eine tolle Aussicht. Sauber und gepflegte Wege und "Gemäuer"👍
(Translated by Google) Cute little tower with an awesome view! (Original) Süßer kleiner Turm mit Hammer Aussicht!
(Translated by Google) A visit to the Buttenturm cannot be missing from Obermarsberg's to-do list. At the Obermarsberg cemetery, a path leads along the wall to the left in the direction of the historic observation tower. This was one of the fortresses on the Eresburg. The outer tower was the only one of seven towers not to be destroyed in 1646. (Original) Auf der To-do-Liste von Obermarsberg darf der Besuch des Buttenturms nicht fehlen. Am Friedhof Obermarsberg führt links an der Mauer ein Weg entlang in Richtung des historischen Beobachtungsturms. Dieser gehörte zu den Festungsanlagen auf der Eresburg. Der Aussenturm wurde als einziger von sieben Türmen im Jahre 1646 nicht zerstört.
(Translated by Google) A calm, peaceful place on top of a hill overlooking the city. A good hiking trail through the pine forest from the bottom of the hill to the very top. (Original) Спокойное умиротворенное место на вершине холма, откуда открывается вид на город. Хорошая тропа для пеших прогулок через сосновый лес от подножья холма до самого верха.

Great place to see but it is a quick trip. They could use the caves for some tourists trips.
Nice walk from the church via the buttenturm to these caves. You cannot enter them, nor would it be safe to do so. But it’s worth a visit.
(Translated by Google) Interesting place. Suitable for a leisurely walk (Original) Interessanter Ort. Für einen gemütlichen Spaziergang geeignet
(Translated by Google) Boy, boy. I haven't felt so ripped off in ages! I didn't do 100% of my research, I just read about Drakenhöhlen (Dragon Caves), it sounds nice, the reviews are good, I skimmed through the pictures, and then I went. Arrived... like, huh? Is this a joke? Fences everywhere! A wooden dragon is peeking around the corner. Did I end up in kindergarten? I thought you could go into the caves. Nonsense! I could have saved myself the trip for such a puppet show! (Original) Junge Junge. Ich fühlte mich schon ewig nicht mehr so verarscht! Habe mich nicht 100% richtig informiert, nur gelesen Drakenhöhlen, hört sich nett an, Bewertungen sind gut, Bilder überflogen und dann ging’s los. Angekommen….so hähhh? Soll das ein Witz sein? Überall Zäune vor! Ein Holzdrache schaut um die Ecke. Bin ich hier im Kindergarten gelandet? Dachte man kann in die Höhlen hineingehen. Pustekuchen! Hätte ich mir den Weg auch sparen können, für so ein Kasperletheater!
(Translated by Google) My hiking tip: The Drakenhöhlen are located on the Eresberg, below the Buttenturm. From the Buttenturm, a narrow, stony path leads in a serpentine manner to the forest route. To the left around the mountain are the Drakenhöhlen. This place is shrouded in legend. The caves are not allowed to be entered! (Original) Mein Wandertipp: Am Eresberg, unterhalb des Buttenturms, befinden sich die Drakenhöhlen. Vom Buttenturm führt ein schmaler steiniger Weg serpentinenartig zur Waldroute. Links um den Berg herum befinden sich die Drakenhöhlen. Dieser Ort ist sagenumwoben. Die Höhlen dürfen nicht betreten werden!
(Translated by Google) Impressive sight, even if it has been cleared away and cannot be entered. (Original) Eindrucksvoller Anblick, wenn auch abgeräumt und nicht zu betreten.
(Translated by Google) Unfortunately not accessible. However, a nice hiking trail that leads past the caves. In a cave there is also a dragon looking out from around the corner. Very informative display boards with explanations of the cave and history. (Original) Leider nicht zu betreten. Jedoch schöner Wanderweg, der an den Höhlen vorbeiführt. In einer Höhle schaut auch ein Drache um die Ecke nach draußen. Sehr informative Schautafeln mit Erklärungen zur Höhle und Geschichte.
(Translated by Google) A mystical place just below Marsberg. Stimulates the imagination. (Original) Ein mystischer Ort qusi unterhalb von Marsberg. Regt die Fantasie an.
