Image description

Merlebach is a former commune in the Moselle department in the Grand Est region of France. It has been merged with that of Freyming since 1971. In 1973, the first oil shock gave hope for new development to the city's mining activities. To date, several generations of increasingly deeper coal mines were found there; in particular, the V well and the Cuvelette well brought back three tons of coal per day per miner, extracted 686 m underground. Merlebach. - A thousand people demonstrated in front of the headquarters of Collières du Bassin de Lorraine.
