“Unplanned Meetings”
As a foretaste of the European Night of Researchers, get to know a researcher through an object, a specimen, a work of art that resonates with his work. At the Science Fair, come and meet Sylvia Lasala, energy researcher at the LRGP (Laboratoire Réactions et Génie des Procédés), who is working on the efficiency of thermal machines.
“Discovering Iron”
The tour invites you to discover iron through the presentation of works, models, photographs and scientific illustrations.
From its extraction to its transformation, from artisanal methods to the transition to the industrial era, without forgetting the social dimension of the steel industry in Lorraine, you will understand all the scientific and technical evolution around iron.
“Sweat and Steel”
Documentary film
Produced at the request of former steelmakers, this film presents the steel-making process didactically and is based on the experiences of 16 witnesses.
This documentary, intended as a memorial testimony after the total disappearance of the factories, retraces the steel production line by taking over the functions of each trade.
