The National Mining Museum in Rumelange deals with the underground mining of iron ore. During the guided tour, you take the mine train into the mine and see how iron ore was mined in the past. To learn more about the museum, you can visit their website: mnm.lu

The Musée National des Mines de Fer Luxembourgeoises is definitely worth a visit! Here you take the mine train into the tunnel and immerse yourself in the world of the miners. During the guided tour underground you will get a detailed insight into the hard and dangerous work of the miners. Visit mnm.lu for more information.

The tour takes you through the tunnels of the "Walert" mine, which was in operation from 1891 to 1963. Discover more than 70m underground large tunnels on two levels and impressive cavities in which your museum guide brings the time of the miners to life again. The machines and tools on display testify to iron ore mining in the region from the 1860s to the closure of the last mine in Lorraine in 1997.
