9,900 pictures were taken in Alsace, 2,845 in various regions of France, and 3,123 in other European countries (UK, Belgium, Portugal, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Romania), resulting in a diverse display of indutrial buildings. Naileries, breweries, laundries, confectioneries, crystal glass and electrical panels manufactures, or estate mansions: these are only a few examples of all the industrial remains that researchers photographed.
Each industrial site collection comes with a short description of the company's history, the buildings' architecture, or the specificities of the devices portrayed. So far, we have uploaded some 2,600 pictures, with the intent to expand the collections in the coming years.
