Visite Guidée du Patrimoine Industriel en Vallée de la Nièvre

In 1857 the Saint brothers opened the very first jute mill in the Nièvre valley. It rapidly became the largest factory in the Somme department until the slump in the 1970s. Today many traces of this industrial past can still be seen in the landscape. Jean-Paul, a guide with a passionate interest in the textile industry heritage of the Somme, will bring back to life the period of the Saint brothers' great industrial empire. Half or full day discovery tours. For more information, ask for Virginie at the Tourist Information office. She can advise on and even organise your tour of the Nièvre valley.
