“Did anyone bring their headlamps?” a voice chuckled, echoing slightly as we stood before the entrance to the Štola Bohumír. Don’t worry, the lights are already on inside. But stepping into the Štola Bohumír does feel like stepping back in time. The mine’s history isn’t ancient. It’s tied to the industrial boom of the 19th century. First records appear in 1853, and the mine operated until 1965. However, it wasn’t until 2015 that the Štola Bohumír opened its tunnels to curious visitors like us. Imagine the clatter and clang of machinery, the miners with soot-stained faces working tirelessly to extract copper. Here, within these preserved tunnels, you can almost hear the echoes of their labor. You’ll encounter displays showcasing the geological makeup of this sedimentary deposit, the tools they used, and even life-sized figures capturing miners in action. And if you’re really keen on experiencing the miner’s life, you can even don an overcoat, helmet, and lamp. It’s all part of the experience here at Štola Bohumír.
