Puits-Marie is one of two pits of the Blegny mine, a former coal mine in the province of Liège in Belgium. During the Second World War, the tower of Puits n°1 was destroyed and extraction continued via Puits-Marie, although the pace slowed considerably. From 1942 to 1948, the tower of Puits n°1 and the triage lavoir were rebuilt and production continued to grow. Today you will find the permanent exhibition here.

Make the detour, go past the "carreau de la mine" and the playground, it's worth it, it's superbly restored, thank you to the municipality of Blegny!
