Museo Miniere Vignola #1

The Museum of Mines is located in Vignola, a village not far from Pergine Valsugana. It was  born thanks to the Filò Association, an association created by some young people in 2006 with the aim of bringing together their ideas and passions to safeguard the territory from every point of view.

The mines of Vignola are located on the side of Mount Orno where the oldest rocks of the  region emerge,  the  phyllids  of the alpine base that have been  raised  to the current height of about 2000 meters. Mining activities in the Vignola area have been known  since  the  Middle Ages  and ended towards  the  end  of the  1960s.

Inside the  Museum, at different  times of the year, various exhibitions of minerals from different places will be set up,  but a part will always be dedicated to the mines of Vignola with unique minerals  and  crystals from various  collectors, accompanied  by carbide lamps,  and various equipment used  from the  Middle  Ages  to the  present day. The  museum  is  open  every  Saturday  and  Sunday. All fans  and will not be able to admire  the  collections  of  crystals  and  minerals exhibited  in the mine-museum  at  the typical restaurant Stube Valzurg  in the hamlet of  Vignola, with free admission.
