Kłodawa Salt Mine

The Kłodawa Salt Mine is a salt extraction facility in Poland with extensive underground deposits that reach significant depths below the surface. It produces various salt types for household use, road maintenance, and industrial or agricultural purposes.

The salt deposits were discovered in the 1930s, leading to mining operations that started in the 1950s with the opening of the first two shafts. The facility has grown to become a major industrial site for the region since then.

The mine holds deep roots in the community's identity and serves as a place where visitors can walk through underground chambers to see how salt is extracted. People here have long depended on this work, and the site remains a symbol of the region's traditional industry.

The site offers a guided tour route at significant depth where you can explore the underground chambers and working areas. Sturdy footwear and appropriate clothing are important since the temperature below ground remains cool year-round.

The mine holds Europe's only naturally pink salt deposits, which create striking color patterns within the white salt formations. These colored layers developed through natural mineral processes across geological time.
