Machines and human beings together in a space talking about the titanic work of coal mining in As Pontes.
It is a space, located in the old unitary school of Saa, holding a permanent exhibition about machinery used when getting coal from As Pontes. Through old pictures, models of machines and audio-visual documents, visitors will be able to know the facilities and equipment linked to the mining activity, as well as the establishment of new lifestyles and work and their traces in the land.
