Interested in how ammonites, belemnites and co. lived? Where Aargau was 160 million years ago? How iron ore was mined and smelted in the Middle Ages? What a lump of iron ore consists of? What it's like to walk through mine tunnels?

The VEB exhibition provides answers to these and many other questions about mines, geology and fossils.

The special exhibition 2020 KRISTALLE AUS DEM BERGWERK will be showing fascinating specimens from fissures and cavities in fossils from April.

The mine train leads from the exhibition via the former spoil tip to the

mine entrance.

Around 180 m of tunnels can be explored in the mine with views of the tunnel system and the unique, original sea floor from the Jurassic Sea full of ammonites.

The mine is not wheelchair accessible.
