Informazioni
Idrija’s mercury mine operated from 1490 to 1995 and was the second largest in the world. Anthony’s Shaft, opened in 1500, is among the oldest preserved mine entrances in Europe, and the guided tour goes underground into the workings with helmets and coats provided. Together with Almadén in Spain, the Heritage of Mercury site was inscribed by UNESCO in 2012. Tours run at fixed times and last around 90 minutes; underground temperature is around 10°C year-round.
