The Upper Harz Mining Museum, located in Clausthal-Zellerfeld, is a beacon of technological and cultural history nestled in the Harz mountains. As one of Germany's oldest technological museums, it offers a deep dive into the mining heritage of the Upper Harz region, particularly up to the 19th century. Visitors can explore a rich collection of exhibits, including original mining equipment, mock-ups from the former mining school, and the pioneering 'Albert-Rope' wire cables. This museum not only celebrates the historical significance of mining in the area but also serves as an educational resource, illustrating the evolution of mining technology and its impact on the region's development.
