The formerly highest situated mine in Europe as a museum - 800 years of mining history become unique experience here. The Monteneve (Schneeberg) mine, the highest in Europe and the longest in operation in the Alpine area (approx. 800 years working silver, lead and zinc) has been turned into today’s mining museum. The numerous mining equipment on and in the massive mountains between the Ridanna (Ridnaun) and Passiria (Passeier) valleys are original any could still be operated today. The entire construction is a mine to touch, view and marvel at, to try, join, discover and experience.
