About the venue: Hornický skanzen Mayrau

The Mayrau Mining Open-Air Museum in Vinařice near Kladno occupies the site of a former coal mine, sunk by the Prague Iron Company from 1874. It is a branch of the Sládečkovo Regional Museum in Kladno and operates on the concept of the "last working day" - the premises look as though the miners left only yesterday. The tour takes visitors from the guild room through the chain-locker changing rooms and lamp room to the shaft buildings. Three original winding engines survive on site; the Art Nouveau Ringhoffer steam engine from 1905 is demonstrated in motion.
