Aldrich Coal Mine Museum Inc

I have been there on a couple of occasions. Once, I was bringing my nephews and recently I brought my granddaughters. They all seemed to enjoy the old company store and the mine exhibit.

There is some cool memorabilia. The owner knows the interesting history of the mine and the family that owned it.

I gave the museum 20$ for the two adults and four kids as the curator was not going to charge for the children. Otherwise, the sign says $5 for adults and $3 for children over 12.

It is a short visit and only a few minutes from Montevallo. It is worth a visit if you are passing through the Montevallo area.

It's a family owned attraction with items collected over the years. The family is knowledgeable about the mine. I would recommend it to anyone interested in the coal mine era.

Local history of coal mining in Aldrich. Several buildings, personal tour guide (owner). Lots of coal mining items and memorabilia, lots of collectibles and history of Aldrich and Montevallo.

My grandfather Henry Emfinger owns it. He has put his heart and soul into this museum he knows so many things about coal mining. It has been his dream for a long time to have this and share the thoughts and stories and facts about coal mining. If you'd like to know more please come by and enjoy yourselves.
