An hour from Abersoch is the National Slate Museum.
Located at Gilfach Ddu in the 19th-century workshops of the now disused Dinorwic quarry, within the Padarn Country Park, Llanberis, Gwynedd, the museum is an anchor point of the European Route of Industrial Heritage and part of Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales.
The Workshops and Buildings are designed as though quarrymen and engineers have just put down their tools and left the courtyard for home. There are an array of Talks and Demonstrations including slate-splitting giving you a real insight into quarry life.
