Museo Minero de Escucha and its collection

Museo Minero de Escucha
Source

The Museo Minero de Escucha is not just a museum, but an authentic mining experience. It is situated inside a restored lignite mine called 'Se Verá'. This unique setting allows visitors to truly immerse themselves in the history and workings of a real mine.

Journey into the Mine

Visitors access the Museo Minero de Escucha through the entrance gallery, then descend in two wagons similar to those used when the mine was active, to a depth of nearly 200 meters. This journey into the depths of the mine offers a unique perspective on the conditions and challenges faced by miners.

Unique Natural Coal Seam

At the end of the tour of the Museo Minero de Escucha, visitors can see an old natural coal seam. This is possibly the only one of its kind that can be visited in Spain, making it a unique and educational experience for all visitors.

The guided tours are informative, giving insights into the mining techniques and the daily lives of miners. The museum's exhibits include mining equipment and historical artifacts. While the experience is generally positive, some visitors mention that the tour can be physically demanding, especially for those with mobility issues.
