The Registry chamber

Further on, we enter the Registry Chamber. It is called this way because this room was ideal for keeping track of the people entering and leaving Rudolf Mine.

In the Registry Chamber, in all its splendor, reigns the Staircase of the Rich.

We step into the 19th century, during the days of Emperor Franz Josef, the last Grand Prince of Transylvania and Emperor of Austria, who is said to have descended on this staircase.

The Staircase of the Rich, placed in the middle of the Registry Chamber, served as access to the Theresa and Rudolf mines before the completion of the works at the transport gallery. Parallel trails cut in detail on the walls by the hammers of salt-cutters bear testimony to the tireless work of strangers who have worked here for centuries.
