THIÉRACHE, INDUSTRIAL AND SOCIAL LAND

Shaping his images in brick, coal, and steel

Fortified by its history, Thiérache has been deeply marked by the two industrial revolutions. This prosperous period brought real economic welfare for a century and a half thanks to the development of mono-industries. The region was then the economic avant-garde of the country with its production of coal and steel. Ahead of its time, its activity contributed to the European industrial evolution.
