On the hill that dominates the village of Asgata , the old primary school was restored and turned into a Museum of Mining and Mining Heritage. The museum exhibits various tools and machinery as well as ores from the mines of our region and from other mines in Cyprus. Also on display are old photographs from the mines.
The visitor can also watch a unique film taken in 1953, with authentic scenes from the mines. This film was filmed by Mr. Antonakis Konstantinidis (Porsevikos) who comes from the village of Asgata and who was a professional photographer in New York.
