Very interesting multimedia historic 3 hour tour of this fascinating 13th century UNESCO Polish…read moresalt mine. The tour begins with a 300 meter elevator descent and continues throughout the lower regions of the mine. Rail transportation is available from site to site in various parts of the salt mine. There is also an abundance of walking, so be prepared for that. The mine maintains a year round constant 57°to 61° temperature so layer up.
Life below ground was somewhat primitive by our standards, yet the human creative spirit enabled miners to adapt and build a community lifestyle below ground that not only thrived but was passed on to succeeding generations for 100's of years.
