Welcome! The first traces of the industrial period of the Carmelites is an act which indicates that the Sieur Gabriel Bougrain operates a paper mill in 1821. In 1859 it was replaced by a flour mill in 1888 plus an oil mill. In 1889, Adrien Vaillant installs a hydroelectric plant that provides public lighting Barjols (before Marseille, which was the pride of barjola). Shocks in 1907 caused the destruction of some buildings. Adrien Vaillant then transforms the plant milling. Having bought the site, Mr Fassy made in a tannery. After the war of 1939-1945, Mr. Fassy built a new micro Central was sold to Mr. Duchamp, the current owner. While the order allows him to install two microwave power, it operates only one (most upstream). Subsequently in 1981, the BIA Carmelites moved upstream of. This will be the last attempt to maintain the industrial activity of tanneries Barjols. Despite significant investments, operation does not start. The final closure occurs in September 1983. The buildings are currently occupied by various artists and artisans.
