Coal mining has played a vital role in the history and development of West Virginia. That history is on display at the Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine and Youth Museum. Guests can tour an actual coal mine, see real mining equipment, and learn about the mining process. Located next to the coal mine is the Beckley Youth Museum, which features four boxcars each with a different exhibit. Science, art, and history exhibits can all be found here. The youth museum also features a recreated mountain homestead to show visitors what life was like for the earliest residents of Appalachia.
