The heritage site of Village-Minier-de-Bourlamaque attempts to preserve the memory and built environment of Bourlamaque, this former industrial town, built – from 1934 – by the American company Teck-Hughes Gold Mines Limited, to house the first workers at its underground gold mine, known as Lamaque Gold Mines.
The working-class neighborhood which, for generations, welcomed thousands of workers today covers an area of 22 hectares, comprising 82 buildings of mainly residential use, characterized by the large-scale use of spruce logs.
