NATIONAL MUSEUM LABIN
The National Museum of Labin is located
in the old town of Labin, inside the baroque palace Battiala - Lazzarin, which
is recognizable by its reddish facade with blue windows and impressive size of
almost a thousand square meters. The palace was built around 1630 and its facade
from 1727. It served as the family residence of the Labin noble family Battial
until the 19th century when with the marriage of Margherite Battial and Lodovico
Lazzarini it passed into the joint ownership of the Battial
- Lazzarini family.
The Labin National Museum is located in
the old town of Labin, inside the baroque palace Battiala - Lazzarini. The most
interesting thing about the Labin Museum is the faithful depiction of the
150-meter-long mining corridors located in the basement of the building, which
encompasses all the characteristic features of the mine, including the original
sounds recorded in the original mine. During the construction of this mine, the
dimensions of a real mine were taken into account, which means this
reconstruction is easily passable in the
rst part, but starting from the
centre of the construction onwards, the ceiling is lowered, and the passage
narrower, which is why it is recommended to wear a protective helmet. The
dimensions of the construction of the mining corridors faithfully evoke all the
weight and horror of the mining business.
At the beginning of 2020, the space of
the Mining Information and Interpretation Centre was equipped and arranged, and
in which the mining heritage is presented in an innovative way.
