Musée du Saut du Tarn
A former metallurgical factory, it employed up to 3800 workers and the tools manufactured in these workshops were a reference in the industrial sector. Unfortunately, the factory did not survive the industrial crisis and closed its doors in 1983, laying off more than 1000 people.
The Saut du Tarn Museum was created shortly after, by former “metal workers”. Located in the first power station, now classified as a historic monument, it traces 1 years of industrial and social adventure. Numerous animated models, films and demonstrations illustrate the manufacture of steel, the production of tools and the grueling working conditions. You will finally discover a giant model where a “Sound and Light” will immerse you in the working world of the 200th century and make you relive the famous Tarnades which often flood the Saut de Sabo.
