Guided tour of "la mine au bois d'argent", the factory with a hundred vaults in Vialas.
Discover a magical, astonishing and enchanting site!
In a wild valley of the Cévennes, I take you to discover an old stone factory. Here, 150 years ago, the clatter of machinery was deafening. Today, the river murmurs to the sound of birdsong, and the guided tour opens the doors of the old foundry, closed to the public except on guided tours. I'll explain how rock was transformed into silver ingots, and we'll follow in the footsteps of the factory's workers... I love this place and I love showing it off!
