Gardanne Alumina Refinery and Engineering Office

Blue building at the back of the roundabout is Alcan Engineering's Gardanne Refinery Office where I am working

Start of the main street that leads to the town centre is only 50 metres from the office

Beautiful wide tree lined streets are characteristic of most small towns in France

..... with the obligatory statues and fountains of course

Main roundabout ( with fountain ) entering Gardanne with Alcan Refinery in the background

First Alumina Refinery built in the world literally is located in the heart of town

View from my office of the landscape made famous by Cezanne in his paintings
