Werra
The “Werra” area has been in operation since 1997, and was originally created by joining the previously independent works Hattorf, Wintershall, Unterbreizbach and Merkers. For approximately 100 years these sites have separately mined potash salts and have processed them into high quality products. Although the Merkers mining site has been transformed into an “Adventure Mine”, visited by the general public, potash salts are still actively mined at the Hattorf, Wintershall and Unterbreizbach sites.
The Hattorf site is located in the Hessian village of Philippsthal. It offers aboveground employment to approximately 550 employees, while more than 1,250 colleagues work underground, at the combined Hattorf/Wintershall mines. more
The Unterbreizbach facility is located in Thuringia. It employs more than 260 employees aboveground and approximately 400 work below ground. more
The site Wintershall is located on the outskirts of the Hessian town of Heringen This site provides nearly 600 jobs above-ground and more than 1,250 colleagues work underground, at the combined Hattorf/Wintershall mines. more
