About "Terre Rouge 2"

by Truus Nijland

About the artwork

When it's not windy, the reflection is fantastic! This is what's left of a former steel mill. Terre Rouge is part of a once huge steel mill in Luxembourg. Today, there is little left of the once colossal site. The name means "Red Earth," a reference to the iron ore-stained soil typical of the area.

Due to the geology and topography of the region, the iron ore deposit here is very shallow. In fact, in some places the iron ore comes to the surface. This made mining very easy and the city built Terre Rouge to exploit this resource.

Historical records suggest that iron ore mining first took place here in the 1830s. When the Terre Rouge ironworks first opened in the 1870s, several other ironworks opened around the same time. A decade after opening, the site underwent a major upgrade and began producing steel. The steel industry flourished and migrant workers fled to the area. By the mid-1970s, steel production was at its peak.

One by one, the mines and steel mills closed. The mighty blast furnaces of Terre Rouge closed in the 1970s.
