Ancienne imprimerie Trécourt

Visible from the outside, today an architect's office
The Trécourts, printers since the 18th century, own several printing works, including one in Vouziers and one in Mézières, founded in 1812 by Jean-Baptiste Louis Trécourt. After him, Ferdinand Devin ran the printing works from 1852 to 1890, followed by Albert Anciaux until 1914. During the First World War, the premises were occupied by the German army. Taken over by Pierre Anciaux in 1931, it remained in the family until 2003. The buildings suffered two major disasters: the bombings of 1870 and a fire in 1920, but were quickly restored. Still in operation today, the printing works consists of brick and limestone offices, a metal workshop and a store with a slate roof. The workforce increased from 34 people in the 1940s to around 49 in the 1950s.
