Welcome to the award winning King Edward Mine Museum which specialises in the mining history of Cornwall. 

The museum is now closed and will re-open again in March 2012 for the weekend of the Mining Games and then in April for our Open Day. 

Throughout the winter there are volunteers at the museum on Sunday mornings (9-12:30) who are available for mill tours. Please get in touch if you would like to visit out of season.

For details of how you can get involved, please see details of the Friends.

For a glimpse of the mine in the 1930's see an extract from the silent movie which was made by CSM mining students around the King Edward Mine site.
