La Ruée vers l’Or Blanc introduces young participants to the Grande Saline through brine wells, salt-water evaporation and small-scale salt-worker tools. The workshop translates Salins-les-Bains industrial heritage into concrete gestures. Children follow the path from underground water to white crystals, tying play to the region’s salt-making memory. For young visitors, the strength is clarity: brine, tools and crystals turn a large industrial history into something graspable. Salins-les-Bains becomes less abstract when the route from underground water to salt can be followed step by step.
