La vanne des Bochets

Highlight • Other

Attested since antiquity, hydraulic energy is used to move the tools of sawmills, tanneries, oil mills, fullers, brickyards, ... But its use often requires specific arrangements (diversion of yards, creation of reservoirs ... ) which have sustainably transformed the landscape and the ecosystem.
The sluice gate is a vestige of the hydraulic system of the Grand Droué mill which ceased its activity at the beginning of the 20th century. It then controls and regulates the flow rates of the reach.
