Neunkirchen Iron Works and Trail

Iron was smelted here until 1982. Today a modern shopping centre stands amidst the few remaining relics of iron and steel production. But there was more to the "Stumm empire " than mere blast furnaces and their adjacent production sites: these included technical constructions like the different gasometers and a water tower, foremen´s houses, a school, a church, social institutes, the remains of an old park and family burial tombs. A signposted 4.5 kilometre circular trail leads to all the highlights.
