In 1500 the silver mine Schwaz was the biggest mining metropolis in the world - today it is a popular destination that is not only historical but also geologically unique: about 500 years ago "tetrahedrite" was found here. The mine train takes you into the mine to learn interesting facts about the mining metropolis of the Middle Ages - in its heyday up to 85 percent of the world's traded silver was mined here.
"Münzwardein" Franz takes you back in time, when Hall became the cradle of the Taler and the Dollar and when the first Taler, the Maria Theresa Taler, was coined. The exhibited coining machines bear witness of that time, the faithful reproduction of the first coining machine in the world is the centrepiece. Visitors can try to coin with a screw press or striking hammer. Another highlight is the climb over 186 steps to the twelve-edged Münze tower.
