Mining Museum and Underground Simulation

When you buy a ticket for the Mining Museum, it is highly recommended to also buy a visit to the Underground Simulation (starting at 11, 13 and 15 o'clock).

The museum is located in the former social building that was built behind the control building in 1953. More about the building: inventaris.onroerenderfgoed.be/erfgoedobjecten/200571 The museum is not very large in itself and is really tailor-made to who wants to know everything about life in and around the mine, its origins, the miners and so on (in my opinion, a more mature audience). I have not yet participated in a subsurface simulation (small additional charge), but people who have done so, like Katrien in her tip, always say that it is worth it when I ask them. The fact that the guide worked in the mine is also one of the elements.

The Mining Museum immerses you in the turbulent mining past of Belgian Limburg. You will be shown around by an ex-miner! Intriguing and authentic.
