  • English
    • Saint-Lon-les-Mines is a commune whose history is intrinsically linked to mining. It is one of the few places in the region to have been a center for the extraction of lignite, a form of coal. This activity, which marked the development of the town, is today commemorated at the Mining Museum, where visitors can discover the tools and techniques of the time. Apart from its mining past, the village has a notable historical heritage.

      The town is also a prime location for nature and outdoor enthusiasts. Surrounded by pine forests typical of the Landes region, Saint-Lon-les-Mines offers numerous opportunities for hiking and mountain biking. The peaceful surroundings, with its lakes and forest trails, are perfect for relaxing and enjoying the local flora and fauna. The traditional festivals and events that liven up the town throughout the year contribute to the friendly and warm atmosphere that characterizes this village.
