The Mine Témoin in Alès is a testament to mining, industrial and social activity, with 700 metres of excavated galleries

Take a real trip down a mine and discover the striking world of the "gueules noires". For centuries, coal mining has been the lifeblood of the town, and this heritage is a must-see in the region. This is a very moving place of remembrance, where we discover the particularly difficult working conditions of generations of Alésiens, a true tribute to the children of the land. During your visit, you'll descend 700 meters into the galleries. Children can take part in a treasure hunt.

Nous avons tenté l'expérience de la visite de cette mine témoin et nous avons été merveilleusement surpris ! La guide nous a expliqué avec précision ce travail à la mine et son évolution, elle a répondu clairement à nos interrogations et son récit était passionnant !
Merci et bonne continuation !

Magnifique découverte et notre guide Laura a été vraiment super, on voit bien que c'est une passionnée et elle a su nous transmettre sa passion. Je vous recommande cet endroit pour vous rendre compte ce que c'était la vie d'un mineur.
