Created at the end of 1973, the Le Creusot-Montceau Eco-Museum's mission is to catalogue, study and enhance the heritage of the Le Creusot-Montceau municipality, marked since the end of the 18th century by the development of major industrial activity, including the steel industry, mining, ceramics, glassworks and transportation. Its main facility is in Le Creusot, at the Chateau of Glass, where can be found the Museum of Man and Industry.
