The Gold Mine Museum in Gondo documents the impressive history of Switzerland's largest gold mine.

The Gold Mine Museum in Gondo documents the impressive history of the largest gold mine in Switzerland. A whole range of models show the various tools that have been used to mine and process gold-bearing ore in the mountain since Roman times. Historical documents show in whose pockets the gold disappeared. Kaspar von Stockalper was one of the great protagonists in the history of the mines. Even the Swiss National Bank bought gold in Gondo. The exhibition of found tools and lamps gives an idea of how hard life was for the miners. The gold mines can be visited on a guided mine trek. Guided tours of the museum are available on reservation.
