A tour of the Bevans mine covers over 100 years of local lead and zinc mining history that puts California's gold rush in the shadows! Put your inner excavator into action as you explore a vast collection of regional mining artifacts on this guided Mine Tour & Train Ride. It's among the largest mine in the Upper Midwest.

Learn about the local miners and how they worked with a class of sediment-hosted lead-zinc ore deposits known by geologists as Mississippi Valley Type (MVT) deposits. This special type continues to be researched and discovered today.

Find out how local mining led to the establishment of Wisconsin as the Badger State. Dive deep into the cultural history via exhibits from the one-man collection of folk historian Rollo Jamison. They'll give you a good idea of rural life in southwestern Wisconsin from its pioneer era through the 20th century.
