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.

Très joli site, malheureusement fermé le jour de mon passage. Mais vous pouvez en faire le tour par un petit sentier d'environ 1km500 et vous pourrez lire sur des petits panneaux l'histoire de cette forge. En bonus, une joli cascade. Parking accessible aux camping-cars ????
