EXPLORING THE EVOCATIVE POLISH UNDERWORLD

One of Europe’s most unusual event venues is tucked away 320 metres underground. Guido Mine, in the heart of Silesia, near Katowice, is a one-off mine-cum-event-place that showcases the history of mining in the region. A guided tour of the mining chambers and a hands-on experience illuminate the evocative, if dim, mining underworld. Attendees of this incentive will relish an authentic Polish lunch and an underground party with a DJ.

A JOURNEY ACROSS THE HISTORY OF MINING

Event organisers can take attendees on a unique mining experience, where they will have to perform several tasks, including fixing the fire pipeline and playing a game of extreme turbo golf. The subterranean world of the mine is home to four mining chambers – Research Chamber No. 8, Compressor Chamber, Pump Hall and Mechanical Workshop. In all four halls, event attendees can enjoy the industrial atmosphere of the historic mine and learn about the region’s extensive mining past.

Each chamber can accommodate from 80 to 180 people each. Attendees will be kitted out with a flannel shirt, wellingtons, a helmet and mining lamps before descending underground to the Mechanical Workshop in the company of an experienced miner. Later, they can enjoy an authentic Silesian lunch in the Pump Hall before freshening up in the mining baths and returning to a party with a DJ in the Research Chamber no.8.

Refreshment in the deepest European subterranean bar

Pump Hall may be the deepest pub in Europe. The Pump Hall distinguishes itself by pairing a historic mining interior with a modern bar. It can accommodate up to 150 people. Here, guests can enjoy Guido beer, brewed by a regional brewery from Gliwice or taste genuine local cuisine.
