The
Museum of the Mines in Montecatini
Val di Cecina
The
mining industry in the Upper
Val di Cecina has always been a major
local activity. The Museum in Montecatini
Valdicecina shows the history of mineral
digging out from 1827 to 1907. Enjoy
a trip into the misteries of the
underground, enter the narrow galleries,
discover the rusted original
machinery and learn how
miners used to dig and bring cupper
above ground. You can also admire
a large collection of original
documents of the mining enterprise
such as working programmes, pay-rolls
and registers as well as outlines
of the galleries and plans of the
mines.
