Story

The National Coal Mining Museum for England is a unique collection of buildings, displays and galleries which reveal the hidden world of mining through the centuries.
Book onto our undeground tours where you'll be given a miner's hard hat and lamp and descend 140m below the surface. Follow your ex-miner guide on a unique underground adventure and find out how coal was mined and moved to the surface by men, women, children, ponies and machinery.
Afterwards, why not visit the nature trails around the site and meet our pit ponies, Eric & Ernie, or visit our new exhibition on Nationalisation?
Finish the day with a delicious home-cooked meal in our award-winning cafe.
Open every day with FREE entry and parking.

Really interesting visit. Very friendly and helpful staff. A shame that underground is closed due to the pandemic, but worth a visit anyway.
Great day out. The staff were amazing not just with us but our son. Park was great, food was lovely. All the staff were very helpful and full of great information!
Always a fantastic experience and well worth visiting. The ex-miners have a lot of knowledge and they made me feel very nostalgic. Would recommend any day of the week.
