Ida shafts (after 1945 'Zofia') at Jan Kasprowicza / Niepodległości street in Wałbrzych Podgórze, from the 19th century. Until 1945, the Ida shaft was the deepest shaft in the Lower Silesian Coal Basin. The tower from the Zofia shaft was dismantled in 1957 and transported to the Wacław mine in Ludwikowice Kłodzkie, where mining was resumed.
Only a few buildings of the former mine exist today.
