rue d'Erchin | Fosse Delloye, 59287 Douai-Sud · Lewarde, DOUAI, France
The creation of the Mining History Centre dates back to the 1970s, and stems from the desire of the management of the "Collieries of the Bassin du Nord/Pas-de-Calais", to preserve a site which would provide future generations with a record of nearly three centuries of mining, industrial and social activity in the mining basin of the Nord/Pas-de-Calais region.
It was the Delloye Colliery in Lewarde, near Douai, which was chosen in 1973 due to the charm of the place.
