Tour Report: Iron Ore Loading Silo

In late November of 2016, my wife and I decided to go for a couple of days of touring and visit her mother as well. Since it had been a couple of years since our last tour of that area of Germany, we had a few spots that we had on our list that we definitely wanted to check out.

We asked our friend Freddy from Nordgriller Urbex if he wanted to join us, so it was the three of us that drove South on a dark and windy Tuesday morning.

As our first spot, we had decided on an abandoned loading silo of an iron ore mine. My wife and I had already explored this spot back in 2014, but since Freddy hadn't seen it and it was conveniently on the way, we were eager for a revisit.

Just like the first time, we parked on the parking lot of the nearby (active) industrial company, put on our work boots and went for a little walk.

As we were walking towards the location, it started to rain a little, but that didn't stop us. For about an hour, we explored the entire area, before we walked back to the car and drove off to the next spot - which was only about two kilometers away...
