St. Anne's tunnels

The underground passages of St. Anne's Tunnels extend through multiple levels, displaying mining equipment and mineral formations from different extraction periods.

These ore mining tunnels, established during the industrial development of Rhineland-Palatinate, contributed to the regional metal production until their conversion to a museum.

St. Anne's Tunnels preserve the mining heritage through exhibitions of tools, machinery, and demonstrations of traditional extraction methods used by local miners.

Visitors can access the tunnels from April through October, Wednesday to Sunday including holidays, with guided tours starting at 11:00 and ending at 17:00.

The temperature inside the tunnels remains constant at 10 degrees Celsius throughout the year, creating natural preservation conditions for mining artifacts.
