Welcome to the Cape Breton Miners' MuseumSituated on one of the most picturesque coasts of Cape Breton Island, on a 15acre site filled with wild roses and grasses, the Cape Breton Miners Museum pays tribute to the region's long and rich history of coal mining. It is home to profound stories of miners and their families, and the resource that helped build a nation. The Museum is also home to the famous choir of miners The Men of the Deeps. Plan a visit to the Museum where you can join a retired mine guide for an underground mine tour, browse the modern exhibits and stroll through our historic village. Complete your visit with a delicious home cooked meal at the Miners Village Restaurant.TestimonialsTo go miles out under the ocean floor and to enjoy learning about the life of a miner is amazing. If visiting Cape Breton you definitely should take the tour you will definitely enjoy it. Trip Advisor Comment, Visitor 2012Solid lunch after visiting the coal mine. Chicken pot pie special was particularly superb.
