The oldest wooden staircase in Europe, an original rope from the Bronze Age, thousands of burnt-out kindling torches and the story of the "Man in Salt" bring history to live. A new exhibition space even invites you to feel what it’s like to swing a Bronze Age ax. All visitors are certain to be left with lasting impressions! A yearning for adventure, good physical condition and no fear of dark tunnels are essential for what is sure to be a fantastic experience. We look forward to seeing you here!
