    - Das kostenlose Bergbaumuseum in Bad Bleiberg bietet einen interessanten Überblick über die örtliche Bergbauhistorie. Öffnungszeiten und Infos unter www.bad-bleiberg.at/de/bad-bleiberg/bergbau-museum/

    - Entlang des Stollenwanderweges können einige Stollen eigenständig erkundet werden - Taschenlampe nicht vergessen.

    - Nötsch ist in Kunstkreisen bekannt für den „Nötscher Kreis“: In den 1930er Jahren etablierte sich hier ein impressionistisches Zentrum. Die Poesie & die Farben der Landschaft wurden aus einer leidenschaftlichen Perspektive auf Leinwand gebannt. Ein Geheimnis der Inspiration: das besondere Licht im Tal! Das MUSEUM des Nötscher Kreises im Ort lässt in diese Weltbetrachtung eintauchen. Öffnungszeiten und Infos unter noetscherkreis.at
