The lodge and the tower on the Geisingberg are an absolute must. Before you climb, however, make sure you check the opening times of the lodge and the observation tower on the Geisingberg. Because we knew that it was closed today, we hiked straight on to Geising.

Altenberger Pinge

Highlight • Natural Monument

Information board accessible to interested hikers on site at the fence. Admission to the viewpoint only with guided tours. Information on this is available from the tourist office and the mining museum. Guided tours take place regularly.

The Pinge is a mining monument in Altenberg and was built in 1620. It characterizes the landscape and has a special historical significance due to the history of its origin.

On guided tours, it is possible to get behind the gate and step onto the viewing platform, from which one can look down into the Pinge.

Altenberg Mining Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

The Altenberg Mining Museum offers a comprehensive overview of the 550-year history of tin ore mining in Altenberg, which dates back to around 1440 and only ended in 1991 when mining was shut down. In the historical pewter washing, the show tunnel, the open-air exhibition, the Pinen tour and the mining educational trail, you can experience a wide range of mining activities from centuries-old ore mining underground to modern ore processing.
