Discover a small preview of all that this unique exhibition can reveal about the south. Here you have the chance to meet some of the former Schmelz workers who contributed to the exhibition 'Stëmme vun der Schmelz' by lending us some of their souvenirs and by telling us their personal stories of everyday life at the steel plant. The images are part of the commission 'D'Stëmmen an hir Gesiichter' that photographer Armand Quetsch produced for the CNA between 2019 and 2020.
