South Tyrol Mining Museum - Ridnaun site

Mining industry high up in the mountains

The
Ridnaun site is a unique monument to the industrial revolution. Here, 150 years
ago, a state-of-the-art ore processing plant was created, with huge machines to
break and crush the rock and large flotation pools to convey the ores to the
surface. Impressive braking inclines and horse tracks form part of what is the world’s
largest above-ground conveyor, leading to the ore district high up in the mountains.
The Poschhaus Gallery bores 6 km diagonally through the mountain into the
Passeier Valley.
