Скачать или смотреть Nord-Pas de Calais Mining Basin, France - World Heritage Journeys

Located in the north of France, the Nord-Pas de Calais Mining Basin is a cultural landscape that stretches across around 4,000 hectares and is full of technical and architectural treasures resulting from three centuries of coal mining. By walking in the miners' footsteps down the shafts and hearing their stories first hand, you can begin to understand the life and conditions of the workers.

Inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2012, the Mining Basin was a nexus for the exchange of ideas and influences about extraction methods used to mine underground coal seams, the design of worker housing and urban planning, and the international human migration that accompanied the industrialisation of Europe.
