View of the Reden pit from Hermann-Göring-Straße (today: Alexander-von-Humboldt-Straße) from 1938. In 1935, shortly after the annexation of the Saar region by the German Reich, Hermann Göring visited the Reden pit and declared it to be an "exemplary facility" of German mining. This photograph still shows construction material used for the expansion of the mine.
