This small museum in a small town does an excellent job of relating the history of the copper mines in this area of Tennessee. You begin your visit by watching a video then proceed to the museum...

The mine is a MUST see. The museum is very well done, in large part due to the people that are there and can share their stories with you. With just a little imagination, you’ll be able to see this.... more

A great museum to learn about the history of copper mining in the Appalachian mountains and about the environmental impacts of over a century of mining. The restoration efforts are amazing and there's a great view of the landscape from just across the museum's entrance. Only $5/adult and you can easily spend an hour or two between the museum and short outdoor walking tour.

Really enjoy the family events that are sponsored by the museum. Really enjoy the interactive experience provided inside the museum. Very educational and insightful learning experience for all ages.
