Support this gem! A great little museum with interesting stuff to read and look at. I got a personal talk about the works and tunnel as it was quite quiet. A fantastic experience with a most informative and interesting guide who spoke to us and pointed out features in the tunnel shaft. All safe and socially distanced. Our grandsons loved the interactive display on the top floor, and also the items for sale in the little shop space! The adults loved the prices of the items!
