5th JUNE 2022 ~ The museum was not that big but it provided enough information of the history of coal mining in Labuan.
"The Chimney Museum displays a collection of 612 historical artifacts unearthed during conservation work and archaelogical excavations naer the Chimney site and Tanjong Kubong’s vicinity.
These include specimens of ancient coal and geological rocks, brass opium containers (bekas candu), ceramic artifacts and various equipment left behind by the coal miners, the remains of a coal transport locomotive that once operated in Labuan, and the Chimney tower’s original bricks produced in the 19th century by a well-known British manufacturer."
