Piast Mine

Piast Mine in Nowa Ruda is a museum focused on the history of coal mining in the Wałbrzych and Nowa Ruda region. Set on the grounds of a former mine, it preserves the area’s industrial heritage and gives visitors a clear look at how this part of Lower Silesia was shaped by mining. It is a good place for a short sightseeing visit.

Na miejscu można liczyć przede wszystkim na:

• underground routes that take you into the former mine setting and show what mining conditions were like below ground,
• mining equipment and displays connected with the region’s coal-mining past,
• exhibits about miners’ work and everyday life, which help explain the human side of the industry in the Wałbrzych and Nowa Ruda area.

If you plan to visit, it is worth wearing comfortable shoes and checking the opening hours in advance, especially if you want to use the underground routes. This is a solid choice for visitors interested in industrial history, local heritage, and a more hands-on museum experience.
