Chevalement du puits Sainte Marie, Mining headframe monument in Ronchamp, France.
The Sainte-Marie shaft headframe features reinforced concrete construction with a post-beam structure and a rectangular hall covered by a pavilion roof.
Built in 1924 by engineer Charles Tournay, this headframe served for coal extraction and mine ventilation until the site closed in 1958.
The Haute-Saône department acquired this structure in 1972, preserving it as evidence of the industrial mining heritage in the Franche-Comté region.
The site, accessible from Rue de la Chapelle in Ronchamp, allows visitors to discover authentic mining elements including a locomotive and mining cars.
This structure stands as the last preserved headframe in the Ronchamp mining basin and received the 20th Century Heritage designation following its 1979 restoration.
