Weißenstadt, Landkreis Wunsiedel im Fichtelgebirge, Oberfranken, Bayern, Deutschland
Quartz veins in massive granite, located under the city centre of Weißenstadt.
The operating time of the mine was during the 17th century. Purpose was producing quartz crystals for the margrave of Bayreuth for his castle 'Eremitage'.
Nowadays the old galleries are on private property and used for cellars, some parts are collapsed.
Sometimes it is possible to visit a gallery, but not for mineral collecting.

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Miocene : 8.40 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
