The Theresa Mine (Theresien-Schacht; Szyb Teresa) was a coal-mining shaft and mining installation in Reussendorf, now Rusinowa, a district of Wałbrzych in Lower Silesia. It served the former Cäsar colliery and, after 1945, became part of the mining areas of the Thorez (later Julia) mine. From the early 20th century, the shaft was also linked to Kamieńsk by the Theresaschacht material ropeway, which carried coal from the preparation plant to a railway siding. The surviving headframe complex is one of the best-known relics of the Wałbrzych coalfield and now houses the Museum of Mining and Motor Sports.
