This monument was designed and erected by volunteers from the "Friends of the Mining Museum" association. It was financed by the municipality of Ronchamp and the association, with the support of the municipalities of Champagney and Magny d'Anigon. Located on the so-called "seigneuriale" marker, it depicts a small coal basin with a diameter of 8 meters, similar to those found in the three municipalities. The shafts are represented by small concrete winding towers distributed geographically: the 14 shafts of Champagney to the east, the 10 shafts of Ronchamp to the west, and to the south, the two wells dug on Magny d'Anigon. The three towns are represented by their coats of arms carved from pink Vosges sandstone. The brown concrete logs symbolize the pit timber, which was made of fir. The keyhole shape of this border represents the industrialists and investors who found in coal mining the key to the region's economic development. The inner surface was lined with pieces of coal collected from the various spoil heaps in the basin to clearly demonstrate that coal had been mined there. The outer ring was filled with white limestone rubble to clearly emphasize the contrast between the work during the day and that at the bottom of the mine (day and night, white and black).

The Sainte-Marie pit is a coal mine pit of the Houillères de Ronchamp. It worked from 1866 to 1958. The shaft is now backfilled but the surface framework remains. A fascinating insight into history.

The Champagney basin is ideal for walking and the dam which borders it to the south is a great spectacle.
