Centrale hydroélectrique des forges de Flize

This hydroelectric power station was built in 1912 by the Bogny-Braux bolting company to supply the Flize forges located downstream. The power station houses three Francis turbines, coupled with 17 kW generators each, capable of producing up to 2 million kWh per year. The waterfall is 1,80 m. It is still in operation for private production.
The building rises on a square floor with limestone rubble walls pierced with twin bays that are renewed in the upper part. The quoins, cornices and frames are in brick. The long-span roof is covered with slate.
