PICAR

Unique industrial vestige of the limestone extraction in Île-de-France in the 19th century, it allowed to go up from the underground quarry located 35 m deep, stone blocks of 4 to 8 tons.
It is formed by two large stone piles on which rests a drum intended for the winding of the cable. The drum is operated by gears connected to a ride on which a horse moves to raise the blocks. It ceased its activity at the beginning of the 20th century and was restored by the PICAR association, a member of the REMPART Union.
Guided tour: history of the use of building stone, method used for extraction, demonstration of the tools used, operation of the winch with a horse, history of the restoration of the monument.
