The Schwarze Crux is one of numerous iron mines around the city Suhl and the villages Goldlauter and Vesser. The most famous mines were the three at Vesser: Schwarze Crux, Rote Crux and Gelbe Crux. They were named after the main iron minerals, which were mined: magnetite is black, pyrite is yellow, and hematite is red. During the 19th century they were amalgamated under the name Vereinigte Crux-Zechen, but later they were simply called Schwarzer Crux.
