Experiencing history should be possible for everyone.

Accessibility at Rammelsberg

The Rammelsberg mine in Goslar has been inspected and certified as an accessible site for people with mobility impairments. Despite the historical structure of the former ore mine, approximately 70% of the publicly accessible areas are already wheelchair-accessible. The aim is to make a visit possible for as many people as possible.
