The highlight of any visit to the National Coal Mining Museum for England is the underground tour, which lasts an 1 hour and 15minutes. Experienced local miners guide parties around the underground workings, where models and machinery depict methods and conditions of mining from the early 1800s to the present day. Above ground you can explore the Museum's interactive galleries, visit genuine pit ponies, see the steam winder and pithead baths, ride the train, enjoy the adventure playground or follow the nature trail.
