This museum is installed in an old colonial building. It traces the world of mining and the history of the region. The Le Nickel company (SLN), founded in 1880, was at the origin of development in Thio. It set up the infrastructure necessary for the exploitation of the site. The mines, the ore processing plant and the shipping wharf required a large workforce, half of which was recruited from Japan. A very interesting museum directly related to the modern exploitation that you can appreciate by visiting the mine.

Municipal museum and I think of original associative, it is a real success by its documentary and iconographic richness. You will discover the history of mining in NC, nickel especially and in this respect, the mines the Thio one, which was the birthplace of the SLN (Le Nickel Company). So well done that you can go there 2 or 3:00 without getting bored. Welcome to more is very warm.
Fond très riche bien documenté par de nombreuses photos et panneaux explicatifs.
Accueil très agréable et attentionné.
