View of Sarragan quarry

Opened a century and a half ago, Sarragan's quarry is today the last operating site in the Alpilles massif gallery and the only underground mining quarry in the region. It is distinguished by its columns from 20 to 25 meters high, monoliths of 800 tons which carve the hill. The white limestone rock of Les Baux-de-Provence is extracted and worked on site to create different interior and exterior decoration elements (staircase, fireplace, bench, etc.).
