Discover the Grands Bureaux de la Société des Mines de Lens, the historic site of the Jean Perrin Faculty of Science.
Dating from 1930, the former Grands Bureaux of the Société des Mines de Lens now houses the Jean Perrin Faculty of Sciences. With its 81 m façade, it is the most imposing building in the city with its Flemish style outside and Art Deco inside! It is from here that all the work in the coal mines was organized (transport, marketing, etc.) but also the daily life of the miners' families (housing, social works).

Bâtiment très connu à Lens, situé non loin du célèbre stade Bollaert dans lequel joue l'équipe du Racing Club de Lens. Mémoire de la période minière, on y trouve maintenant la factulté des sciences. Bâtiment aussi beau à l'intérieur qu'à l'extérieur. Une visite s'impose.

A building exceptional I recommend the visit as well outside and inside. This castle of mining industry has real nuggets: monumental chandeliers, majestic fireplace, marble staircase. As for the French gardens, a walk in the park is necessary!
