Cooperage, Ledoux Museum, Royal Saltworks, Arc-et-Senans, Burgundy, France

Cooperage or Tonnellerie, used for barrel making, communal kitchens, wood storage and barrel makers' accommodation, now the Ledoux Museum or Musee Ledoux, part of the Royal Saltworks or Saline Royale, begun 1775 in Neoclassical style by architect Claude Nicolas Ledoux, 1736-1806, at Arc-et-Senans, Doubs, Bourgogne-Franche-Comte, France. The building is viewed through the Doric columns with alternating cubic and cylindrical forms of the Director's House or Maison du Directeur. The site is designed in a semicircle, with the Director's House, 2 saltworks containing drying ovens, heating pots and salt stores, workers' accommodation and Director's stables. An Ideal City was also planned but never built. The site is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
