Professional collectors of minerals as well as families with children can search at the Mineralienhalde Grube Clara for more than 300 diverse and unique minerals. The material at the stockpiles comes from the mine Clara, one of the mines with the richest variety in minerals world-wide. Also for children is the Mineralienhalde an intersting destination: It does not only offer to wash gold, but there is also the possibility to celebrate your birthday at the stockpiles.See more..

Genau das richtige für einen verregneten oder viel zu heissen Tag! Im Bergwerk hat es immer 6-8 Grad und ca 95% Luftfeuchtigkeit - also auch immer Sommer Jacke nicht vergessen! Tolle Führung mit tollem Einblick in das Bergwerk Leben der vergangenen Zeit! Sehr gepflegte Anlage mit kleiner Wirtschaft die noch mit Hausmannskost zum verweilen einlädt! :-) Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Finanziert wird das Ganze von einem Verein daher ist der Eintrittspreis mehr als gerechtfertigt. See more..

5.0Schieferbruch Kromer(9 reviews) - For the Fossil Hunter - Ammonites Spent 1-2 hours Mines
This is by far one of the best fossil sites I have been too in regards to finding ammonites. You could almost close your eyes and guarantee and get one. It is a shale quarry which makes it easy to break for kids. The site charges a small fee and also has hammers and chisels for rent for also a very small fee. They have porta potty's and a covered picknick area.See more..

4.5Bergwerk Finstergrund(7 reviews) - Don’t go if you don’t speak German! Spent 1-2 hours Mines
Not a complaint at all as it’s entirely reasonable for an attraction in Germany to be in German but just a heads up for other Non- German speaking tourists. I think the tour, led by an ex-miner was probably excellent but there was only the odd few sentences in German on display in the caves. The train ride into the caves were fun and the caves interesting but I think we missed 80% of the content because we didn’t understand the tour. My score reflects what it would get if we’d understood! Also, they really need to get helmets that fit smaller kids. Every few minutes a kid dropped one as they were all far too big. It must drive the guides bonkers. See more..
Luckily, we live around the corner from La Pineta! We stop in often for a reliable family dinner! Very family friendly! Pizza is delicious and many options available. See more..
4.5Silbergrundle Erzbergwerk(3 reviews) - Besucherbergwerk vermittelt Eindruck über die Arbeit vor hunderten von Jahren! Spent 1-2 hours Mines
EIn kleines aber feines ehemaliges Erzbergwerk im Schwarzwald. Führung nur mit Voranmeldung. Wir hatten Glück, dass wir uns ("ausnahmsweise") einer Gruppe direkt anschließen konnten für 4€ p.P. Mit Erläuterungen und Führung durch das Bergwerk dauerte es etwas mehr als eine Stunde. Stiefel, Helm und Regencape werden gestellt. Im Bergwerk wird es teils recht eng, aber es ist es wirklich wert! Mal ein Ausflugsziel abseits des Massentourismus im Schwarzwald.See more..
