15km, north of Brioude.

By compiling its historical materials, Brassac has managed to create a mine museum which, each year, draws and captivates thousands of visitors. The exhibition pieces that are displayed in the old machine hall, testify of past booming business: picks, scrapers, helmets and lamps which all tell you about the story of these men, use to giving their best in the hardest of working conditions. A genuine reconstitution of these galleries invites the visitors to experience this descent into the labyrinth of "hell".
