Falu Mine

Such a interesting experience!! The guide we’ve had was friendly and knew a lot of the mine en it’s history. There were also lots of quotes from people way in the past about working in the mine and other stories. When our guide turned out all of the lights, the darkness of the mine was kinda scary. Hope the lady of the mine doesn’t follow us back home!

A can’t miss UNESCO site in Sweden. The guided tour in the mine was well worth it! Friendly for children over 4 .. beware lots of stairs but it was an amazing visit. The museum was also a great informative visit. Lots of great historical information and a inique experience for all.

English tours are limited so book in advance, Visit musium also. It won't be that cold inside the mine but wet and water dripping so wear clothes according

A very interesting and amazing place. I recommend a guided tour of the mine underground to everyone. I will put only few photos because You have to go there personally. Highly recomend.

We first visited in April 2022 but that was a brief visit(only the mine tour), we merely took a glance at the museum. We were quite impressed even during that short visit, and decided to revisit. Today, we spent an entire day there: - Reached early(0950), and viewed the sites like Creutz shaft, hoist, etc. - Visited the museum, viewed partially but thoroughly. - Lunch at the cafe. We avoided the restaurant this time as the menu didn't suit us but based on our 2022 visit, I would say the restaurant is decent and reliable. - Guided tour in English at 1330. We actually had booked a Swedish tour as the English one at 1200 was full. During our interaction with reception, they informed us that there would be an additional English tour at 1330 due several visitors. - Revisited and covered the remaining part of the museum. - Left around 1600. The museum is the best part, followed by the 1h guided tour. They have taken utmost efforts to provide information on English. The guides and the staff provided some interesting information apart from the tour as well. The kids also enjoyed a lot. Overall, it is a must-visit sight if you are in Sweden even for a brief period.

Very interesting and historical, a visit is highly recommended. The huge dimensions of the mine are simply breathtaking. The museum is also full of information. Unfortunately, some equipment is broken and needs to be repaired. The staff at the reception and also the guides are very nice and helpful and happy to answer all questions. The mine is so huge that we unfortunately could only visit a very very small part, we would have liked to see more. We would also have liked to see the historic buildings on the surface, but these are only open for a visit in the summer months.

We loved the trip to the mine! The tour underground is awesome and very interesting even for small children. Our 4 year old loved it, our 7 year old was a bit scared. We had a great time. Lunch was also very nice in the local restaurant. Not crowded at all. The museum is also beautifully decorated with interactive corners.

Absolute must-see! Guided tour and also museum are great places. Dont miss the 1,6km walk around the great pit with all the historical buildings to visit.
