In 1692, the Manufacture royale des Grandes Glaces was established in the abandoned castle of Saint-Gobain, which gave the later glass company Saint-Gobain its name. The factory developed and in 1986 it still supplied the glass for the pyramid of the Louvre. In 1993, it was announced that the factory would close and on 31 December 1995 the last activity of this historic establishment disappeared.
