Located in the Germigny Valley, the Chabrolles plant developed in the mid-nineteenth century by producing a high quality lime for the construction of works of art (canals, stations, barracks, schools etc.), especially for the Eiffel Tower and Alexandre III bridge in Paris. Exiled from a career, it was successively through the ovens (17 ovens grouped into 2 batteries) to arrive in the work stoppages (extinction, blasting, bagging). Finally, it was carried by railcars and shipped by barges on the side canal in the Loire (finished around 1830). More than 500 workers participated in these various work. In 1934, the plant closed. Some time after she gets buried. In 1990, a dive center was created (see "Underwater Diving Center").
