Intro
Get a comprehensive insight into the Engi slate quarry and learn exciting stories and information from your group guide about the arduous journey to work and everyday life of the slate workers of the time.
One hundred and twenty meters above the valley lies the tunnel entrance, which leads visitors right into the heart of the mountain. After a few steps, huge halls open up, supported by slate pillars that serve to support the hollowed-out mountain. Some visitors are left breathless by this unexpected impression of space.
Furniture, clocks and accessories (e.g. real slate panels) are still made from the slate quarried in the Engi slab mountain in the Glarus Sernftal today, mostly handcrafted individual products by various local artisans. These products can be purchased directly from the manufacturers or in the sales exhibition in the Pavillon Landesplattenberg, Engi-Hinterdorf. You will also find an online store at www.landesplattenberg.ch.
