- Once a working underground mine,
the Anselmo remains intact and provides a showcase of underground
mining technology, tools, buildings and the working environment
of underground miners.
-
Located on the corner
of Excelsior and Caledonia Streets, the Anselmo is surrounded
by historic homes that reflect how before the advent of the trolley
system and the automobile, workers lived within walking distance
of their source of income.
-
- Today, the mine yard includes historical
interpretation and is occassionally used for celebrations such
as the annual art and music festival in August.
