Description

At the end of the 19th century, forestry policy was beginning to bear fruit: the district of Colmars was able to supply this hydraulic sawmill. It was bought in 1920 by La Compagnie d'Exploitation des Bois de la Haute Vallée du Verdon, directed by two men from Nice, Lempereur and Carré. From 1922, the business went into decline “Active resources have been absorbed by passive ones”; Carré pulled out of the company. Lempereur maintained hope, but five years, bankruptcy occurred and the sawmill was abandoned.
