About "Old colliery"

by Monodio Photography

About the artwork

Mining architecture that reflects a whole century. This double shaft was built in 1907.

The clear structure of the foundation plant has been preserved to this day despite all the modernisation. During the Second World War Westerholt suffered severe damage. The winding tower above shaft 2 was the only one in the Ruhr area to be destroyed in a bombing raid. In the 1950s the colliery was given a new central winding shaft, which was topped by a closed winding tower. In 1998 RAG merged Westerholt with Fürst Leopold colliery in Dorsten to form the Lippe colliery. On December 19th 2008 Westerholt colliery was closed down as the last colliery in Gelsenkirchen when the last wagon of coal was brought to the surface. Normally I don't mention locations by their names, but this is not necessary here, because the colliery is in the process of dismantling, which is a pity. A piece of regional industrial culture is lost here....

About Monodio Photography

Addicted to decay, I am always driven to long abandoned and deserted places.
I love to capture the morbid charm of old buildings with my camera.
