The Plombières mining site is an industrial and natural site located in Plombières, in eastern Belgium. Between the 14th century and 1922, zinc and lead ores were mined and processed at this site. This mine was the most important lead mine in eastern Belgium and the third for zinc. It flourished between 1856 and 1882.

Vandring

The site of the former Plombières mine is home to species-rich calcareous grassland meadows, now protected as a nature reserve. The exceptional flora and fauna of this area are due to the heavy metal-rich soils, particularly the presence of zinc in the subsurface.

Among the natural meadow relics, visible traces of the former metal industry can still be found:
– Walls from former foundry floors
– Remains of old smelting furnaces
– Stones from former industrial buildings

A small stream meandering through the area further enriches the ecological diversity of this special place.

Vandring

The creek was diverted years ago and this rock breakthrough was built especially for it, as the pit for raw material extraction always filled up during floods.
It is a beautiful place with a lot of calamine violets. Especially on warm days you will find pleasant shade here, the benches invite you to rest.
