Unterberghaus / Knappenstube
5771 Leogang
The "Unterberghaus" snack bar is the starting point for the guided tours and, after visiting the mine, invites you to linger in a cozy ambience and delicious local cuisine. You can also see some very interesting gravel maps of the Schwarzenberg mountain district! Of course there are also souvenirs, which will surely remind you of the visit of our showmaker.
Since the 20th anniversary of the show-mine in 2009, there is a genuine pile-work in the immediate vicinity of the Knappenstube, which can be used to demonstrate how difficult it was for the miners to extract the ore from the excavated rock.
