Apresentação geral
Bisbee
Former mining town hanging on the Mule Mountains, known for its colourful staircases, galleries and facades.
Copper Queen Mine, Bisbee Historic District and Lavender Pit give the most telling landmarks of Bisbee. Together, they form a destination where urban life, mountain reliefs and heritage meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
Ver tudo
For a stay of 2 to 4 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. The main sites are generally easy to access.

Uma seleção para começar a sonhar e organizar a estadia — não uma lista exaustiva de tudo o que há para ver.
Place indismissible
Copper Queen Mine
The Copper Queen Mine dive into the mining past of Bisbee underground visit by helmet and jacket, aboard a small mine train. Galleries, tools and work stories show concretely what the city owes to copper, far from the coloured facades visible on the surface.
Culture and heritage
Bisbee Historic District
The Bisbee Historic District climbs up hillside, with steep stairs, old hotels, brick facades, perched houses and traces of a mining town that has become an artist's refuge. The promenade passes from a narrow alley to a view of the mountains or the scars of copper mining.
Place indismissible
Lavender Pit
Lavender Pit exposes the other face of Bisbee : a huge open-pit mining cut, with rock steps tinted with copper, ochre and violet. The roadside lookout is enough to measure the scale of extraction and contrast with the narrow streets of the historic centre.
Culture and heritage
Muheim Heritage House
Muheim Heritage House preserves the domestic atmosphere of a prosperous family of Bisbee, with furniture, woodwork and views of the sloping city. The visit complements the mines and shopping streets by showing how the fortunes of copper were reflected in the privacy of a house.
