Another episode of my series Guide's stories. This time I will take you to #Switzerland.

A journey into the salt mines of Bex
For many centuries Bex in canton Vaux was Switzerland's only salt producer. Today the historic salt mines attract 67,000 visitors every year. The 50km of galleries chiselled out by hand bear witness to the hard and dangerous working lives of miners in the past.

MINES DE SEL, BEX SWITZERLAND
17JUne2008 BEX,SWITZERLAND-MINES DE SEL- An audiovisual presentation (in French, German, English and Italian) installed in an ancient reservoir dug out in 1826 as well as an exhibit allow you to relive all stages of the three centuries of history of salt and the mines. Then a small train brings you to the heart of the mine. From there a pedestrian circuit of about one hour allows you to discover the incredible effort put in the underground search for salt springs, or the desalination of rock containing salt, which, at the time, was worth its weight in gold.

Short info:
For centuries the ownership of salt mines meant wealth and power. The salt deposits at Bex, discovered in the 15th century, are still mined today. The salt mines are accessible to visitors, a museum depicts the mining of salt from 1684 to the present.
Between 200 to 60 million years ago, the present Rhône Valley was a shallow sea.The salt deposits of Bex in the Canton of Vaud are derived from the salt of this sea. A labyrinth of passages and tunnels, over 50 kilometers long, today yields 30,000 tons of salt per year.
On a visit to the museum and the mine, visitors see the various techniques of salt mining from the year 1684 to the present and the history of this white gold. A small mine train takes visitors into the subterranean world and to the restaurant located in the mountain at a depth of 400 meters.The mines can be explored further on foot. Unusual adventure tours offer treks into the mines and tunnels that date from the 17th century.
A variety of plain and herbal salts from Bex can be purchased under the brand name “Sel des Alpes”.
