Thanks all for taking time to comment and vote. The valley of Rauruis gained providence and wealth through gold-mining. From 1377 to 1802, Rauris held an independent country and mountain-court. Mining reached its peak from the 15th to 16th centuries. The houses of the mine-workers still testify to the affluence of this time with bow-gates and bay windows. By 1500, the valley had more than 3.000 inhabitants. After gold-mining almost came to a complete end at the beginning of the 20th Century in Raurisertal, attempts were made to try and revive the industry. However, at the beginning of talks within the Rauris community, proposals to recreate the industry were rejected in fear that it could damage the environment and the region's tourism prospects.

Excellent. For me it's slightly oversharpened, but not enough to deduct for. 10.
