Is located in the largest building in the town of Banská Štiavnica, with a permanent exhibition mapping the history of mining in the Štiavnica Hills as well as throughout Slovakia.

The museum houses mining machines and tools that were used for mining or pumping water in the past. In the laboratory you will learn information about the stones that were mined in the mines. We recommend that you visit the museum before you put on your helmet, wear a green cloak and set out to explore the Glanzenberg or Bartholomew mines which are accessible to the public. The museum prepared a children's workshop which is very popular with families with children.
