Musée de la Mine La Machine

For nearly two hundred years, coal was the city’s main resource. In 1974, when the last well closed at La Machine, many miners wanted to perpetuate the memory of their profession through an educational, pedagogical but also captivating place.
Opened in 1983, the Mine Museum consists of two complementary sites:

  • The Mine Museum, trace the history of coal and the life of the Black Faces.
  • The Glenos Well and Mine Gallery, share the harsh working conditions of miners, women, children and animals.
    Please note: Lamps and helmets will be provided for the visit (wearing flat shoes is strongly recommended).
