Raspail & Sons
The remains of a medium sized metal manufacturing plant, founded in 1827 and abandoned around 2000 when production moved to a new factory after bankruptcy and a merger with another company. Founded by Benjamin Raspail, the comapny initially produced metal parts that were used for making shoes. It was later taken over by his sons and started making a more diverse product portfolio, from industrial blades to agricultural machine parts.
Today, parts of the factory have been rented out to other companies but large portions of the manufacturing halls remain abandoned.
