À propos du lieu

Fosse 10 de Billy-Montigny
Avenue du 1er mai, 62420 Billy-Montigny
  • Pas-de-Calais
  • Hauts-de-France
A former coal mining site, Pit 10 was operated by the Courrières Mines Company on the municipal territory of Billy-Montigny between 1900 and 1953\. Nowadays some buildings are still visible, including the machinery/boiler building built at the end of the 19th century. Since 2012, the Friends of Billy’s Pit 10 association has been occupying the building to protect it and give it a new purpose. We offer regular visits to the site and exhibits of mining materials characteristic of the time of Pit 10.
