Důl Jan Šverma, Coal mine complex in Žacléř and Lampertice, Czech Republic.

The mining complex contains an extensive network of underground tunnels stretching across 60 kilometers through the eastern Bohemian landscape.

The site originated from the merger of multiple mining pits in 1958 and continued coal extraction operations until its closure in 1992.

The mining museum, established in 2015, presents exhibits about coal mining methods, equipment, and the daily life of miners in eastern Bohemia.

Visitors can access virtual tours of the coal treatment facilities and mining shafts through the official website of the Hornický skanzen Žacléř.

The reclaimed spoil tip now functions as a recreational area for cycling and running, while supporting diverse plant species and wildlife.
