The multi-award-winning Britannia Mine Museum offers an immersive experience of an iconic National Historic Site where passionate, friendly historic interpreters bring history to life.
 
Experience a range of exhibits, guided tours and the award-winning, multi-sensory experience BOOM! on the breathtaking ground level of the historic Mill No.3 building.
