The 54-meter shaft inaugurated in 1977 brings the underground world of mines closer to the visitors. Shaft securing equipment, augers and simple tools used in mines are on display.

The display endeavouring to provide information on natural sciences opened with a modest showing, only with a few showcases, located in the Miners’ Club in Alsócsingeri. The display opened in 1978 on Miner's Day is located in the old mine rescue station at present.

Smiths were always very crucial workers in mines. In the first period of mining in Ajka, almost all iron works were done by smiths.

The exhibition presenting the past of mining in Ajka is located in the old transformer house. When the museum was opened, the building itself was still dilapidated and was only rebuilt later on.

The community of the Ajka Power Station remembered the 50th anniversary of the opening of the power station in 1993. The Mining Museum and the Bakony Power Station Jubilee Memorial opened in the same year.

The Mining Machine Skanzen opened on 3000 m2 in the yard in the spring of 1977. Tools aiding work both underground and on the surface are exhibited.
