Cape Breton Miners Museum, Mining museum in Glace Bay, Canada.
The Cape Breton Miners Museum features exhibits of mining equipment, tools, and artifacts spread across a 15-acre coastal location in Nova Scotia.
The museum preserves the memory of coal mining operations that shaped Cape Breton Island's development through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Former miners guide visitors through underground passages, sharing personal experiences and knowledge about the mining profession that defined generations of local families.
Between June and October, visitors can join guided tours lasting 90 minutes, with 45 minutes spent exploring the underground mine wearing mandatory hard hats.
The Men of the Deeps, a choir formed by active and retired coal miners, performs regularly at the museum since its establishment in 1966.
