Black Hills Mining Museum

Located in the mile-high city of Lead, the Black Hills Mining Museum is dedicated to the preservation of the rich mining heritage of the Black Hills. We invite you to visit us and enjoy our numerous exhibits and activities that are educational and fun and cleverly depict our mining heritage. We offer a simulated underground gold mine tour that takes you through the history of mining and shows 125 years of changes. We are open daily, May-September, and by reservation during the rest of the year.
