Overview

About 100 kilometers from Bucharest and 44 kilometers from Ploiesti, the Slanic salt mine is a recognized destination for balneal and touristic activities since 1853, when it was declared a tourist destination of national interest in Romania.
Among the superlatives of the salt mine (especially the Union Mine), the most important tourist and health objective in the resort, there is a huge volume of excavated salt, about 2.9 million cubic meters, which led to the creation of cavities with gigantic volumes, respectively 14 trapezoidal rooms totaling about 80,000 square meters.
The 14 underground rooms have an opening of 10 meters to the ceiling, 32 meters wide at the bottom, and the height is 54 meters. The depth of the salt mine is 208 meters. The impressive dimensions granted it the title of the largest salt mine in Europe.

What To Expect

Unirea Salt Mine

We visited the largest salt mine 2.5 hours away by car(including a stop on the route for a break) we arrive at the Slanic Prahova Salt Mine and the Salt Mountain. The maximum depth of the mine is 217 m, and its trapezoidal chambers measure 55 m high, the total area of the mine being approximately 80,000 m2. The height of one hall is 70 m, and the circuit runs around the enormous pillar that supports the mine. The Unirea Mine is the result of the excavation of 2.9 million m3 of salt deposit which created cavities with gigantic volumes: 14 chambers with a trapezoidal profile. inside you can visit the salt lake and the waterfall, which can be admired from a wooden bridge. various exhibitions with equipment that was used to exploit the salt mine or to rescue the miners.
