The Ministère de la Culture's notice

En 1891, Pierre Secrétan fonde une usine de fabrication de produits à base de cuivre et de zinc. Le programme comprend la construction de bureaux, de logements d'ouvriers, de contremaîtres, ainsi que le logement patronal. Ce dernier, avec son étage carré et ses combles, joue de la polychromie de la brique et de la pierre, et se distingue par son beffroi au décor soigné.

In 1891, Pierre Secrétan founded a factory for the manufacture of products based on copper and zinc. The programme includes the construction of offices, worker housing, foreman housing, as well as the employer's residence. The latter, with its square storey and roof space, plays with the polychromy of brick and stone, and is distinguished by its bell tower with carefully worked decoration.
