The Big Pit National Coal Museum – A True Underground Experience
Big Pit is a fascinating and informative day out for individuals of all ages, with amenities to educate and entertain them. Take a multi-media tour of a modern coal mine with a virtual miner in the Mining Galleries, as well as displays in the Pithead Baths and ancient colliery buildings.
All of this, in addition to the world-renowned Underground Tour. Explore 300 feet down with a real miner and hear about the lives of hundreds of men who worked at the coal face.
At this award-winning national museum, which sits high on the heather-clad moors of Blaenafon, the tunnels and structures that once echoed to the sound of miners now enjoy the sound of visitors from all over the world’s footfall and conversation.
