After its restoration, the 34-metre-high winding tower of the rich mine has been lifted back into place with heavy-duty cranes. The Freiberg silver mine is part of the research and teaching mine of the TU BergAkademie Freiberg. The Freiberg deposit was the basis for the development of mining and metallurgy in Saxony
