Description

Il Bois du Cazier era una miniera di carbone nel territorio dell'allora comune di Marcinelle, vicino Charleroi, in Belgio; il sito è oggi protetto in quanto Patrimonio industriale. Esso è maggiormente conosciuto in quanto luogo di un grave disastro minerario avvenuto l'8 agosto 1956 in cui morirono 262 uomini, tra cui un gran numero di lavoratori italiani. Oltre ai memoriali del disastro, il sito include un piccolo parco boschivo, conserva i "castelletti" e gli edifici, nonché un Museo Industriale e un Museo del Vetro. Il museo fa parte della European Route of Industrial Heritage ed è uno dei quattro siti minerari valloni riconosciuti dall'UNESCO quale Patrimonio dell'Umanità e inserito nell'elenco nel 2012. Nel 2017 ha ottenuto il Marchio del patrimonio europeo.
