Anselm Mine, Mining museum in Petřkovice, Czech Republic
The Anselm Mine features shafts, tunnels, and industrial buildings constructed with red brick and glass, showcasing coal mining infrastructure from the 1800s.
The coal deposits at Anselm Mine were discovered in 1776 when Mr. Ketlicka found black rocks that burned in his fireplace, leading to mining operations.
Former miners serve as guides at the museum, sharing their knowledge and experiences while explaining the techniques and equipment used in coal extraction.
The mining complex includes walking paths, cycling routes along the Oder and Ostravice rivers, and connections to central Ostrava and the Beskids region.
The site contains a training track where visitors experience the challenges of mine rescuers navigating through buried passages and emergency scenarios.
