A forge dating from 1521, which was one of the largest wood-fired forges in France, producing cast iron in a blast furnace and refinery.
This 1521 forge owes much to the Combescot family, whose history is closely linked to that of the area. It was one of the large wood-burning forges that produced cast iron in a blast furnace and a refinery. It relied on water power and peasant labor in winter. It survived until 1930, when the blast furnace was shut down. A rich and moving tour reveals the workings and lives of the families on site.
