Kilns located in Chantonnay, built to practice the calcination of limestone and transform it into lime.

Chantonnay still has three of the five lime kilns. These buildings were built to practice the calcination of limestone and transform it into lime. The coal was transported to the nearby lime kilns to be used as fuel for firing the limestone, extracted from quarries in the Chantonnay basin. Discovered in 1750, coal was mined between 1839 and 1869 near the Temple and the Tabarière to the south of Chantonnay. Two slag heaps, the office of the old mine and traces of excavation remain from this exploitation.
