Museum that offers guided tours to better understand mining in La Motte-d'Aveillans.
An unusual visit that takes us underground, along 250 metres of gallery of a "horizontal" mine where the "charbon de la Motte", one of the best in the world, was mined. This museum offers guided tours to better understand mining, its techniques, materials from different periods and the working conditions of the miners. The Treasure Room houses superb minerals and a permanent exhibition. There is also a film and a temporary exhibition at the end of the visit to the museum installed in the showers of the mine.

Visite guidée et richement commentée. Reconstitution d'une galerie de mine à l'identique très impressionnante. Exposition de matériels et reconstitution de logements de mineurs intéressants. A voir
A real journey back in time.
The visit is commented on with many details and cheery. The visit is in several stages (underground cloakrooms, equipment, squares.). I was surprised by the realism and the details.
The youngest put the surprising questions seem easy to us but whose are also not necessarily simplest.
