For over 500 years, silver was mined for the King at Sala Silver Mine. Today, the mine is a vibrant place where history meets the present—both in the deep tunnels underground and in the scenic area above ground. Follow the mine’s stories on guided tours, events or conferences, and extend your visit with an overnight stay, food and meetings in historic settings—right in the heart of Sweden’s history.
