During the contract talks, we had lunch at an old restaurant, situated over the old mine service shaft which was used to deliver mine timber to the workings. The Maltermeister was the timber supply foreman. The shaft tower was referred to as a "turm". Hence the restaurant, "Der Maltermeister Turm".
