The Hottinguer coal mine was one of the main collieries of the Épinac coal mine. The buildings, raised between 1872 and 1876, housed a revolutionary atmospheric extraction system: a piston moving in a 558 m-high tube, machined in Le Creusot (an original technique by engineer Zulma Blanchet), rather than by traditional cables, which at the time were unable to descend to such depths (over 600 m), making it the deepest mine shaft in France when it was commissioned in 1871. After its closure in 1936, it was converted into a paint factory in 1948 by the BITULAC company, before being abandoned in 1998, barely ten years after the fire of March 12, 1989. It was listed as a historic monument by decree on November 26, 1992, and was classified by decree on October 11, 2022, which superseded the original listing. The Malakoff Tower and its wings have been undergoing renovation since late 2012. The construction of a photovoltaic power plant near the old buildings is currently under study.

Burgundy ( BUR-gən-dee; French: Bourgogne [buʁɡɔɲ] ; Burgundian: Bregogne) is a historical region in France, broadly corresponding to the territory of the former administrative region of the same name, which existed from 1982 to 2015 before it was merged on 1 January 2016 into Bourgogne-Franche-Comté. Its capital is Dijon. Named after the Burgundians, Burgundy was historically associated with several political entities, most notably the Duchy of Burgundy, which emerged in the early Middle Ages and later became one of the most important principalities of the Kingdom of France. In the 14th and 15th centuries the duchy formed the core of the Valois-Burgundian State, a major power in late medieval western Europe. Burgundy is known for its historical monuments, monastic heritage, and wine, especially Burgundy wine. Major religious centres included Cluny, Cîteaux, and Vézelay, while Dijon developed into an important centre of politics, culture, art, and learning.
