Sygun Copper Mine is a Victorian copper mine which closed in 1903 but was renovated and reopened by the Amies family as a tourist attraction in 1986, focusing on audio-visual tours of the underground workings. Sygun Copper Mine was once a main supplier of minerals in Wales.[1] It is located about one mile (1.6 km) outside of the village of Beddgelert in the Snowdonia National Park in North Wales.
