Haut-Martelange Slate Museum, Industrial heritage museum in Rambrouch, Luxembourg.

The Haut-Martelange Slate Museum presents extensive exhibitions about slate extraction techniques through restored buildings and underground galleries reaching depths of 42 meters.

From 1790 to 1986, the slate quarry employed numerous workers who extracted and processed stone using manual techniques passed down through generations.

Former quarry workers, including those who started at age 14, demonstrate traditional slate-splitting methods and share personal experiences from their mining careers.

The museum provides helmets for underground exploration, maintains different seasonal opening hours, and offers guided tours with ticket prices of 10 euros for adults.

Visitors can ride an industrial train through the facility and participate in workshops while learning about slate formation and extraction processes.
