Aufgeklärtes Glück Mine

The Aufgeklärtes Glück Mine is an old mine, now closed, in the valley of Thumkuhlental in the Harz Mountains of Germany. It lies southwest of Hasserode, a village on the edge of the town of Wernigerode in the state of Saxony-Anhalt. Nowadays, its exterior facilities form part of a nature and geological educational path that, thanks to the reconstruction of an old mine water management system, make a very graphic witness of the former mining activity at the foot of the Harz' highest mountain, the Brocken.
