A large concrete structure in existence since 1920, offering a key place in the history of the region's industry, a must-see
This large concrete structure has existed since 1920. It is the headframe of pit no. 2 of the Compagnie des Mines d'Aniche. It's one of only four such headframes still standing in the region! Listed as a Historic Monument and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is an important part of the region's industrial history, and a symbol of the imprint of the mining industry on the area. Bought back in 2021 by two enthusiasts, it is the subject of a rehabilitation campaign with the hope of preserving it and giving it a new lease of life!
