L'Usine

L'Usine occupies a substantial industrial building on the Place des Volontaires, distinguished by its history as the former Geneva gold roughing factory. The site processed gold, silver, nickel, and platinum for banks and local industries from the late nineteenth century until nineteen eighty-three. Following a fire in nineteen fifteen, the structure was rebuilt and raised, resulting in the masonry facade visible today near the banks of the Rhône.
