About

Geevor is a great day out in Cornwall. We're a family friendly visitor attraction, giving you a great insight into our rich mining history. Every generation will find something to enjoy at Geevor. 

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.

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 your trip you will get the experience of being in a real mine.
