The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Dernier témoin architectural des seules mines de houille exploitées en Franche-Comté. Construit en béton armé avec des chambranles de baies en brique, il affirme une certaine recherche de symétrie et d'harmonie rappelant l'architecture privée. Il témoigne ainsi d'une volonté d'estomper son caractère utilitaire d'architecture industrielle.

History
Last architectural witness to the only coal mines exploited in Franche-Comté. Built in reinforced concrete with brick reveals to the window openings, it displays a certain concern for symmetry and harmony recalling private architecture. It thus testifies to a desire to downplay its utilitarian character as industrial architecture.
