Ecomuseum
Industrial Archaeology in an ancient iron's mine.

La Miniera lays on a wide terrace above the Dora Baltea Valley in Piedmont's Canavese. This big property belonged to an ancient iron's mine and its environment is rich in historical and archaeological memories.

Come, discover and explore the fascinating world of the old mine and its past: the entries of galleries, the forges, the abandoned villages, the mills, the stone wheels, its golden and brilliant minerals....  an italian Colorado.
Everything  witnesses  the hard work of the miners.
