Interactive Tour: "Honorary Miner"

This offering combines theoretical knowledge of both early mining and the modern era with practical experiences that every visitor can try out.

The ultimate hands-on tour for mining enthusiasts who want to get stuck in underground and aren't afraid of a little dirt and sweat. This experience combines theoretical knowledge of both early and modern mining with practical activities for visitors to try out. The program for this fun-filled tour includes, for instance, the arduous task of tunneling with hammer and gad, deafening drilling work using a pneumatic hand drill, traversing a medieval adit in its original profile, hauling a mine cart using pure muscle power, feeding our mine goat, and the concluding "Arschledersprung" (miner's leap) for those who have earned the title of "Honorary Miner."
