In the city limits of Annaberg some ore dykes reach the surface, the most valuable is called Silbermühlen Flache. This dyke crosses the whole historic town center of Annaberg diagonally from northwest to southeast. It is visible on a length of 840m.
Because of the location of the ore dyles so close to the surface, it is most likely that mining started as soon as the first buildings were erected. However, first records of mining activites are found two years later.
The show mine opens the pits of the silver mining in Annaberg, which are close to the surface. on a lenght of 257m. Height differences are managed with steel stairs. The mine allows insights into all aspects of medieval mining. There are several Anzuchtstrecken, which are adits used for draining the mine.
The mine is entered through a new shaft in the courtyard of the Erzgebirgsmuseums. This shaft is 14m deep.
The name Im Gößner is derived from a man named Gößner, who was the son in law of the second mayor of Annaberg. He founded several mines in the area. There are documents of an Gößnerzeche (gößner mine) which is most likely the adit called Alter Kunstschacht in the show mine.
