Forty years of human adventure to discover...
1952, 1992... between these two dates, forty years!
The first marks the discovery of uranium.
The second, after the plant closed, marked the destruction of two emblematic towers in the two shafts.
Between the two, the cultural mix of miners from elsewhere, from the coal mines of the North, the South of Vendée or the Sarthe, Italians too, Poles....
Between the two, in order to cope with the arrival of new inhabitants, a working-class city was added to the village.
Between the two, the small grocery stores "where everything could be found", the very small stores for shoes, delicatessen, fabrics... were modernized, pretty shop windows were opened, and, miraculously, a doctor was set up, a pharmacist, a press store, a post office...
It is all this evolution, all this life, which is presented by a visit to Louis' home, in 1952, and by an outdoor tour, in the streets of the village.
And you will discover the energies, including new energies.
