Guided tours

The two-hour guided tour gives you an insight into the variety and functions of the different buildings. With the help of exhibits, models and machines, various aspects are dealt with, such as the history and development of the slate industry, the extraction of the stone, the processing of the stone on the surface, the range of slate products and the working conditions of the workers in comparison with the life of the owner.

The owner's and accountant's offices give you a view of the administration in the 1930s. The visit is complemented by a film on the slate industry (produced by René Leclère, a renowned Luxembourg producer, in 1938)
