[DE] Vor dem Mühlenturm in Mayen befindet sich dieser Kollergang der Papierfabrik Nettemühle Mayen.

"Kollergänge wurden seit über 100 Jahren bis in die jüngste Zeit auf der ganzen Welt bei der Papierherstellung zur Zerkleinerung von Zellstoff und Altpapier eingesetzt.
Für die Maschinenteile aus Stein war die Mayener Basaltlava wegen ihrer Porösität, wie für Mühlsteine, besonders gut geeignet. Sie wurde für diese Zwecke bearbeitet und in die ganze Welt geliefert."

Informationsschild

[EN] In front of the mill tower in Mayen there is this Kollergang of the paper mill Nettemühle Mayen.

"Koller corridors have been used for more than 100 years in paper production all over the world for the comminution of pulp and waste paper.
Due to its porosity, Mayen basalt lava was particularly suitable for stone machine parts, as it was for millstones. It was processed for this purpose and delivered all over the world."
