Glanzenberg Mining Gallery

Museum & Gallery, Technical Herritage

The latest exposition of the Slovak Mining Museum that has been made available is an hereditary draining mining gallery, which is counted among the earliest in the Štiavnica region.

The mining gallery became well known after it was visited by several sovereigns (from the House of Habsburg) in the past and notable personalities in the present. Commemorative boards in the gallery mark the visits of the most prominent of these people. Each visitor enters this authentic underground area wearing an overall, a helmet and a head lamp.

Places Around

Akadémia a botanická záhrada

V Štiavnici je všetko hore, alebo dolu kopcom. Dobre padne načerpať energiu v botanickej záhrade, kde nájdete sekvoje aj japonský céder. Sláva Štiavnice nespočívala iba na bohatstve jej podzemia, ale aj na sláve Baníckej akadémie. Zriadila ju v roku 1762 Mária Terézia ako prvú univerzitu svojho druhu na svete a zhromaždila v nej špičkovú vedu a techniku tej doby. Botanická záhrada obklopuje budovy Akadémie.
