The Steel Giant

"Les Forges de Clabecq" are old steelworks closed down in 1992. This site is very dangerous and its old blast furnace is a famous landmark for industrial architecture lovers.

We strongly advise not to step into this factory, for several reasons. First, it is really dangerous to walk around in these old abandoned buildings. Moreover, this site is inside an active factory owned and still operated by Duferco.

Waiting for an eventual demolition, the ironworks sleep under coal dust and rust.
