The Ministère de la Culture's notice

En activité depuis 1860, l'usine fut modernisée et agrandie vers 1920 par M. Coulouby (distillerie, chaudière, bâtiments de stockage, tonnellerie et poterie). Achetée par René Poudens en 1940, elle subit de nouvelles améliorations (destruction de la tonnellerie et de la poterie). Fermeture de l'usine en 1966. Ces bâtiments sont représentatifs d'une activité industrielle disparue.

In operation since 1860, the factory was modernized and enlarged around 1920 by M. Coulouby (distillery, boiler, storage buildings, cooperage and pottery). Purchased by René Poudens in 1940, it undergoes new improvements (destruction of the cooperage and pottery). Closure of the factory in 1966. These buildings are representative of a now disappeared industrial activity.
