Can be visited for an entrance fee. In the last mine in the Netherlands, visitors can travel back in time and see what it was like to work underground. In an underground cinema, the organizers are showing an advertising film for the Dutch State Mines (DSM). After that, a former buddy will guide you through the mine and tell you about old times.

Here in Valkenburg is the very last coal mine that was closed on December 17, 1990. Definitely worth a visit to dive back into the past.

Coal mine yes, a piece of my culture can't hurt to see how coal was mined in the past. You get an impression of how the miners had to work and what dangers there were and where cooperation and trust played a very important role, definitely worth taking a look
