Slate transport

Restored inclined lift at the National Slate Museum, Gilfach Ddu in Padarn Country Park, Llanberis
The museum is housed in the former workshop buildings of Dinorwic Quarry on the banks of the Llyn Padarn opposite Llanberis at the foot of Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa), the highest mountain in Wales. Here, in the second largest slate quarry in the world, the fissile sedimentary rock was extracted from the end of the 18th century until 1969. Following the decline of the Welsh slate industry, tourism is the main source of income for the locals.

Schiefertransport
Restaurierter Schrägaufzug im Nationale Schiefermuseum, Gilfach Ddu im Padarn Country Park von Llanberis
Das Museum befindet sich in den ehemaligen Werkstattgebäuden des Dinorwic-Steinbruchs am Ufer des Llyn Padarn gegenüber von Llanberis am Fuße des Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa), dem höchsten Berg in Wales. Hier im zweitgrößten Schiefersteinbruch der Welt wurde das spaltfähige Sedimentgestein vom Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts bis 1969 abgebaut. Nach dem Niedergang der walisischen Schieferindustrie ist der Tourismus die Haupteinnahmequelle der Einheimischen.
