Description

These bins are located on the Place Auguste Devaux in Saint-Hubert. It is unclear whether this is a drinking bowl or a sink. The fact that there are 2 bins leaves open the possibility that it was a sink: a first container for soaping (the lowest); the second container for rinsing.

Auguste Devaux, woodcutter and clog maker (a specialty of the region), became a socialist militant and trade union secretary in Saint-Hubert.

In Awenne near Saint-Hubert, the village where the clog makers were concentrated, he organized a first meeting in 1896 that was the basis for the creation of a cooperative for the production of clogs.
