Rammelsberg, Mining museum in Goslar, Germany
The Rammelsberg facility contains underground tunnels, mining equipment, processing plants, and exhibition halls dedicated to ore extraction and mineral processing techniques.
The mine operated continuously for over 1000 years until 1988, extracting silver, copper, and lead ores that generated wealth for the Imperial City of Goslar.
The museum presents collections of mining tools, machinery, and documents that illustrate the development of mining technology from medieval times through the industrial revolution.
Guided tours explore both surface facilities and underground chambers, with the site remaining open daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM during winter months.
The Roeder Gallery features wooden water wheels in the wheel chamber, demonstrating the historical method of managing water inside the mountain mines.
