Důl Gabriela

Gabriela Mine is a preserved complex with buildings, shafts, and machinery from the region's mining operations. The site features typical coal mine structures including headframes, processing facilities, and workers' quarters.

The mine was established to extract coal and minerals from the region's rich deposits and became central to the industrial development of Moravian-Silesia. Its operation and eventual closure reflect the broader economic and energy shifts that shaped the region over time.

The site reveals how miners worked and lived in this region, with traces of their daily labor visible throughout the grounds. The structures and equipment tell stories of the skills and hardships that came with extracting coal and minerals.

Visitors can explore the site during guided tours that explain mining methods and working conditions. It is advisable to wear comfortable shoes and prepare for variable weather, as much of the site is outdoors.

The site preserves not only physical infrastructure but also records and artifacts showing how miners here developed and applied their specialized techniques. This collection documents knowledge and practices that might otherwise have been lost.
