Not to forget the expert tours: on Wednesdays at 1:30 p.m. and on Saturdays at 1:00 p.m. we will take you into the secret hiding places of the mine, which nobody else will discover! Duration: 2.5-3 hours – be careful, it gets low (ca. 1.20 m ceiling height)!
December: Saturdays only 10:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. guided tours!
Regular tours only take place on Saturdays at 10:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., as the Mettenschichten (miner’s christmas) follow after that. This applies to all Saturdays in 2022, including December 31st. The visitor’s mine is only closed on Christmas Eve, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day.
From the new year we will welcome you again on Saturdays during the regular opening hours!

No extended expert’s tours because of construction work
Due to underground construction work, we will unfortunately not be able to offer any extended expert’s tours until mid-October. However, regular guided tours take place as usual without restrictions!
In parts of the extended expert’s route, the woodwork is being renovated. After that, we look forward to discover the secrets of mining with you within an approx. three-hour special tour – every Wednesday from 1:30 p.m. on.
Current provisions: Wearing a mask
We ask you to wear a mouth-nose protection (FFP2 or medical mask).
