Puits du Magny, Historic mining well in Magny-Danigon, France
The Puits du Magny reaches a depth of 694 meters and features a shaft with a diameter measuring over 4 meters throughout its vertical extent.
The mining operations at Puits du Magny started on August 5, 1873, and continued until May 3, 1958, when the final coal cart was extracted.
Polish miners who arrived between World Wars I and II were provided with accommodation facilities, including a large canteen and temporary dormitory.
The mining site contains partial ruins and several preserved historical structures that represent the industrial heritage of the Haute-Saône region.
When it began operations in 1878, the Puits du Magny held the distinction of being the deepest mining shaft in France.
