The Familistère of Godin is an impressive historical ensemble from the 19th century, and at the same time an example of collective living and cooperative entrepreneurship. Jean-Baptiste Godin had started a factory for the production of stoves and cookers, but also wanted to contribute to a social reform of society. He abandoned the concept of the classic workers' houses and drew the plans himself for his' palais social 'where everyone (from director to worker) could rent an apartment. At the same time, he provided a day-care center (avant-la-lettre) for children from 2 weeks to 4 years, a school for children up to 14 years old, a bathhouse with laundry and drying room, a theater and shops. Every employee of the Godin factory was part of the cooperative, and could live here at affordable rates and use the facilities. The whole complex was built with the proceeds of the factory.
