The Dossena Mines represent a historical testimony to industrial and mining archaeology in the Brembana Valley.
These mines have been an important resource for mineral extraction, particularly calamine (a zinc ore), since ancient times. The guided tour allows you to explore the main galleries and learn about the history, mining techniques, and miners' lives.
