Abstract

When the mines in Cantabria closed down, different economical solutions were looked for in order to alleviate this crisis. One of these solutions has been tourism. Since the Nature Park of Cabárceno was opened in 1990 until today several projects have been carried out to retrieve the mining heritage. This paper analyses all the projects carried out in Cantabria where the mining heritage has been or will be a basic element to consider in the near future.
