Tarnowskie Góry - Mine of Silver Ores and Black Trout Adit

Tarnowskie Góry is a town in Silesia in southern Poland, particulary known for its long tradition of mining industry, which lasted hundereds of years and left as a result an extensive underground system of galleries, adits and pit shafts. Some of them have been restored and are open for tourists:
  • In the Black Trout Adit you will travel by boat, led by a guide-storyteller. In the twinkling light of carbide lamps you will be able to see blasting holes, or even bats or trouts - if you are lucky!
  • In the Mine of Silver Ores you will be able to visit three shafts: 'Anioł' ('Angel'), 'Żmija' ('Adder') and 'Szczęść Boże' ('God Bless'), connected with 1700 long galleries, 40 meters undergrund. Part of the route is also under water, so you will travel by boat again. There will be an opportunity to see some mining tools and a museum of steam engines.
Tarnowskie Góry is located about 100km from Cracow, so you will be taken there by coach. The trip will last all day. Dinner is included.
