Interesting real life experience
Lead castings
The reception of the mine offers a wide range of products made of lead castings. In the days around the New Year, divination by pouring molten lead (or wax) into cold water has been common in Slovenia since the middle of the 20th century. This tradition is part of the rich Slovenian tradition, customs and habits that originate from pagan religious and secular rites. They usually cast three castings, for the past, present, and future from which they then prophesied.

Tomaš was a wonderful guide, we had a lot of fun! They provide a full equipement, so no need to worry about geting dirty during the visit. Place is interesting and rich of historical stories.
The mine is a proper thing for exploring the mining industry of a century ago. The place is safe, visitors get desinfected helmets
