Ancienne mine du Poyet
Former lead and silver mine operated from Middle-Ages until 1878. Two parallel veins were worked up to 130 m depth. It was the main mine in this area during the 18th and the 19th centuries (4000 tons of lead were produced). All adits are collapsed now but the dumps are still accessible.
