Centre Historique Minier de Lewarde

Description

If you're passing through the C?ur d'Ostrevent, the Centre Historique Minier de Lewarde is a must-see.
It's the kind of place where you can learn a lot without wasting any time.


Let yourself be tempted by a guided tour, and frankly, it's worth the detour. The explanations are simple and to the point, telling you about the life of the miners, their daily routine, the work at the bottom of the mine? And then there's the passage through the underground galleries: you go down in the impressive elevator, you retrace where the miners worked, and you immediately understand what it was like.
Depending on the time of year, you may also come across temporary exhibitions, always different, giving a different perspective on the mine, local history or more topical subjects. The site also offers regular events and activities, especially for families, making each visit a little unique.


Before you leave, a quick visit to the store is a must: books, souvenirs, gift ideas? perfect for prolonging the visit or leaving with a nod to the local heritage.


And it's not just any site: the Centre Historique Minier de Lewarde is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. An interesting, friendly and easy place to visit, ideal for having a good time while discovering an important part of the mining past.
