Puits de Campgrand, Coal mine shaft in Cagnac-les-Mines, France
The Campgrand shaft features a metal lattice headframe supported by brick structures and includes a 30-meter circular chimney from its operational period.
Built in 1892 by the Albi Mining Company, this 202-meter shaft extracted coal until 1905, then served as a ventilation shaft until 1979.
The site maintains a Fournier Mouillon extraction machine and a Rateau ventilator, representing significant elements of industrial mining heritage in Tarn department.
The museum presents permanent exhibitions about mining operations and includes a gallery reconstructed by former miners to demonstrate extraction techniques.
Shaft number 2 maintains its original machinery with a 250 horsepower motor coupled to a generator converter used for visitor demonstrations.
