Silver luster & miner's death
The exhibition on mining brings to light what went on underground for thousands of years. It reveals the dark secrets of miners from the Bronze Age to the 21st century. A laboratory for technical, social and economic innovation.
To mark the 80th anniversary of the end of the war, the smac is exhibiting objects that document the suffering and destruction of the Second World War. Exhibits from prisoner-of-war camps and layers of rubble from Saxon cities were recovered during excavations.

Creative workshop: Steigerstube
The creative workshop for the special exhibition Silberglanz & Kumpeltod in the foyer of the smac is open to everyone. The play and craft activities range from painting wooden stars, searching for treasures in the sand, mineral memory to building Lego® tunnels and much more.
In this tour, you can get to know the so-called oriel exhibitions. They deal with the star architect of the time, Erich Mendelsohn, the SCHOCKEN department store group and the fascinating personality of Salman Schockens (with sign language).
The greed for ore has been driving people into the mountains for thousands of years. Wealth and power, but also the exploitation of nature and people are the result. The tour reveals the dark secrets of the miners from the Bronze Age to the 21st century.
