About : Village de Livet-et-Gavet

A former industrial hub, with housing, railways, cinemas, schools, doctors and parks, Livet-et-Gavet is a fine example of industrial heritage that still contains a number of buildings from the era. It is easy to imagine the daily lives of employees setting off to work in the power stations...

Hydroelectricity is once again flourishing thanks to European funds provided for the "New Romanche" project, whilst electrometallurgy is celebrating its centenary.
