Glacière d'Étel, Industrial heritage building in Étel, France
The Glacière d'Étel features two parallel sections with barrel-vaulted roofs, constructed from reinforced concrete and concrete blocks near the harbor.
Built in 1946, this ice production facility could generate up to 60 tonnes of ice daily to preserve fish catches, particularly tuna, for the local fishing fleet.
The structure represents the maritime industrial heritage of Brittany and will house the Tuna Museum along with exhibitions about marine preservation.
The building undergoes renovation works from 2020 to 2024, including asbestos removal and concrete restoration, before opening as a tourist office.
The curved roof structure now incorporates biodegradable solar panels developed in Nantes, generating energy for municipal buildings in the area.
