Eliášova dědičná štola, Mining adit in Úsilné, Czech Republic
The Eliášova dědičná štola consists of metal walkways extending underground, with sections requiring visitors to bend due to low ceiling heights.
Construction of the drainage tunnel began on July 20, 1574, but financial constraints halted the work after six years despite substantial completion.
The mine tunnel represents the industrial heritage of South Bohemia, demonstrating the mining techniques and engineering capabilities of the 16th century.
A 350-meter section of the original three-kilometer tunnel remains accessible between Úsilné and the water management shaft since 2009.
The tunnel ceiling features natural formations including stalactites and sinter coatings, reaching depths of fifteen meters below ground.
