Schwaz Silvermine

Mother of all mines – the silver from the silvermine was the most important source of income for the Tyrolean sovereigns.


Experience closely how 500 years ago more than 10000 miners searched for silver and copper, and made Tyrol one of the richest provinces in Europe. The mining railroad takes you on an exciting time travel into the silver Middle Ages and past fascinating sinters.
800 metres deep in the silver belly of the mountain, you climb out of the clattering railroad, and sink into the unique world of the legendary Schwaz silvermine.
