Balaton • Museums

Description

The exhibition is at the edge of former bauxite extraction. The historical collection and the relics are presented in a copied mine shaft and in the open area (the mine has been copied 1:1). In the open area one can see the machines and vehicles of open bauxite mines, whereas in the shaft the history is told of the Hungarian bauxite extraction by means of posters and tools, machines and the security system. You get real feeling that you walk in the mine. Outside there is still a study track concerning bauxite geology.
