Useful information

Description

The grandiose royal saltworks (18C) are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This showpiece of industrial architecture, built by the architect Ledoux, forms a harmonious semicircle. Laid out around a vast courtyard, each building (workshops, staff accommodation) is arranged symmetrically around the director's house, whose columned façade alternates square and cylindrical drums. Ledoux' scale models are housed in the coopers' building.
