What's Here

This is your chance to go underground and walk through the tunnels that were made by men and boys two hundred years ago!  Wheal Mexico dates back to the 18th century, and during the tour you will get the experience of being in a real mine.

Have a go at panning for ‘gold’ and a collection of colourful gemstones. Fun for all ages! Keep what you find for free!

The Hard Rock Museum at Geevor is home to fascinating exhibits about metal mining in Cornwall.

Victory Shaft was the main hoisting shaft at Geevor for men, materials and rock.

The Dry is one of the most evocative and moving experiences of your visit to Geevor. Experience the atmosphere of the change room, left almost exactly as it was on the day that the miners came up to surface for the last time in 1990.

Geevor is the largest preserved mining site in the country, the key centre within the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site. Come and explore the many buildings such as the Winder and Compressor Houses with their magnificent mining machinery. The Mill buildings contain unique mining equipment that was used to process the rock brought up from underground to produce the precious tin concentrate that Geevor sold.

The shop at Geevor stocks a large range of quality items, and many of these are made in Cornwall. Take home a souvenir of your day out!

Come and visit our café with its stunning views of the Cornish coastline. Whatever you order, you’re sure to enjoy!
