Sala Silvergruva
Come and
experience the mysterious underground world of the Sala Silvermine
and stay in the mine's hostel. Peer into the depths of the Queen
Christina main shaft, feel the cold, the humidity, and experience
the utter darkness. Listen to the stories of the history of the
Silvermine, find out about the great importance of silver and
how miners toiled day after day to fill the coffers of the land.
It's an unforgettable experience!
Centrally
located on the mining area, you will find the mine's own hostel,
originally built as a rooming house for unmarried men around 1920.
The attractive building, called Marketenteriet (The Canteen),
has 15 double rooms, all with space for an extra rollaway. The
hostel maintains a simple standard with a shared toilet and shower
in the hallway. Come stay in a beautiful and rustic environment,
with everything the mine offers just outside your door.
Important
to know:
A Guided Tour in the Mine can take between 30 Minutes and 2 Hours
depending on the Tour alternative chosen. Down in the Mine we
make our way, using the stairways through old Mine tunnels. The
temperature in the Mine is approximately between +2 to +5 C all
year round; it is also fairly damp and a little dirty. We recommend
warm suitable clothing. Participants use the waterproof capes
and Wellington boots provided by the Mine.
