About This Tour
Explore one of the most advanced mines in Europe in the late 70s. The mines were in operation from 1971 to 1981 and it was one of the most modern mines in Europe, built with very innovative criteria for the time. At the time of the interruption of the mining activity, only 1/3 of the deposit had been exploited, despite the fact that there is still a lot of iron in the depths, available up to 250 meters below sea level.
