One of the few still industrial corners of Lorraine region, in the north-west part of France. Founded in 1907, the Patural blast furnace plant consisted of 6 blast furnaces (american type). Today, after many renovations, only 3 of them are still standing: P3 (not in the picture) is not active since 2008, P5 (left one) is partially demolished and abandoned since some years, P6 (right one) was reactivated in 2009 and still producing.
