Lille, Alberta
Lille is a ghost town in the Crowsnest Pass region of southwestern Alberta, Canada. It was a company-built coal mining town that, between 1901 and 1912, hosted a population that grew to nearly 400. The mines at Lille closed in 1912, due primarily to weak coal prices, increasing production costs, and the increasingly poor quality (high ash content) of the coal. The town was then dismantled and most of its structures were moved elsewhere. Today the site is an Alberta Provincial Historic Resource and is known for the elegant ruins of a set of Bernard-style coke ovens that was imported from Belgium.
