The former Coqui factory in Ambazac is exceptionally opening its doors on Saturday, November 7th, and Sunday, November 8th, offering a final chance to explore the site before its transformation.

Before embarking on a new chapter of its history, the iconic Coqui factory in Ambazac invites the public for an unprecedented exploration. Two special days are scheduled for Saturday, November 7th, and Sunday, November 8th, allowing residents to tour the premises and potentially take home a piece of local industrial history.
An in-depth visit, conducted in collaboration with a DRAC conservator, has identified heritage elements to be preserved on-site, safeguarding the memory of the factory and its past activities. However, numerous other objects remain and require removal.
It is within this context that a partnership has been established between the site's owner and the association Lou Gerbassou. Together, they are organizing these two open house days.
Visitors will have the opportunity to explore the factory's interior and delve into its past. A clearance sale will also allow attendees to purchase some of the items still present on site.
