Rundgang im Bärenmuseum
Authentic insight into the lives of miners in the former administration building of the miners. In addition, permanent exhibition about the bear in Switzerland.

Description

The museum shows how, during 300 years, miners at Mot Madlain mined ore by hand to melt it (in the "Schmelzra") and thus obtain the coveted silver and lead. Tools and rolling stock from that time impressively show how the miners and farmers of that time lived. You can even crawl into the tunnels on guided tours.   

In addition, permanent exhibition about the bear in Switzerland, including the 1904, at that time the last bear shot in Switzerland from S-charl. Not far from the museum, the new bear adventure trail offers further insights into the way of life of the large carnivore.
