(1)

The Quincy Mine Hoist Association preserves and interprets the history, landscapes, buildings, and industrial work experiences of the Quincy Mining Company, educating people about Michigan’s significant copper mining heritage. The Quincy Mine serves as a critical gateway into the Copper Country’s rich heritage. Utilizing its unique historical resources–its historic mining location, buildings, equi

pment and underground mine–as well as high-quality interpretive tours, exhibits and programming, the Quincy Mine site provides an engaging and informative experience, educating visitors about the rich cultural legacy of Michigan's copper mining era. We educate the public by conducting guided tours of several important surface buildings and of the interior of the mine, and by offering special tours for schools and other groups. The Quincy Mine Hoist Association is a not-for-profit, self-supporting 501(c)3 organization.

Less than two weeks until the famed No. 2 Shaft-Rockhouse is restored to its original glory!

Since the fall of 2024, the structure has been without its 50-foot tall flagpole. But we are installing a new one to make sure Old Glory can fly above Quincy Hill once again...and you are invited to help us celebrate!

Join us during Bridgefest, Saturday, June 13th at 4pm to dedicate the new flagpole and raise the American flag over the shafthouse for the first time in decades. It's the best way to be part of Keweenaw history during this semiquincentennial year! Free-of-Charge with light refreshments provided.
