The most important mine in Europe, offering a guided tour through underground galleries and mine workings.

No coal in this mine, but iron and copper pyrites, the source of Lyon's chemical industry. The mine was one of the largest in Europe, but was forced to close in 1972. A symbol of an activity that shaped the country, the museum, located on the former mining site and created on the initiative of former miners, plunges you into the bowels of the Earth during a guided tour of the underground galleries, mine workings, extraction site and machine room.

Musée de la mine
J'avais visité l'an passé et j'y suis retourné cette année pour faire découvrir ce lieu très intéressant à un ami. Cette année, la visite se fait avec un audio guide à cause des consignes sanitaires. C'est un peu moins vivant mais ce lieu reste quand même très intéressant. Quelle vie difficile que le vie de mineur.
En prime, une collection de minéraux magnifiques dont la Chessylite de notre région.

Superbe découverte que ce musée ! Accueil absolument sympathique de Michel. La visite guidée est très intéressante: on descend dans ancienne galerie de mine reconstituée. A ne pas manquer.
