Prepare yourself for an adventure like never before.
Visit the Coal mining museum of Slovenia in Velenje, which is one of the most popular museums in Slovenia.
Put on the miners boots for a short time, descent 160 m beneath the surface of the earth and go on an interesting journey into the once active mine tunnels of the mine Škale, which are now a part of the museum.

Come and convince yourself how mysterious the underground world is. In the company of our guides you will
enter the coal mine exactly as the miners did last century. Dressed in mining clothes, overcoat, with a helmet
on your head and with a snack in your hand, you will get into the coal mine, 160 meter deep, through
the Old shaft from 1888. In the underground tunnels you'll see in an hour and a half a vivid demonstration of
how the miners work looked like in the past and how it does today. 18 scenes and 15 puppets of miners who come
to life with modern audio-visual equipment create the story in the museum. You'll become acquainted with
the mechanisation of the mine in recent decades of the development of Coal Mine Velenje. You will
conclude your visit with a ride on the underground railway.

At last you will visit the museum on the surface with an exhibition on the development of coal mining
in Slovenia, a coal miner's apartment before 1930, the history of the legendary “jump over the skin”
and exhibitions of famous artists.
