Puits de la Vogue


The "de la Vogue" shaft was probably sunk in the 19th century by the mining company "Compagnie de mines de Villeboeuf" and was connected underground to the neighboring "Ambroise" shaft via a tunnel from 1878. In 1925, the old wooden headframe was replaced by a brick winding tower. The shaft was abandoned after the mining company was dissolved at the end of the 1920s.

The geo-coordinates refer to the start point of the shaft.
