Faculty of Sciences
The Faculty of Sciences is the main building of the Lens campus of the University of Artois.
History
Originally the offices for the Lens mining company, the building is adorned with eighteen dormer windows, built to represent the eighteen mines they operated. At their productive peak, a train platform was once installed for the shareholders, removing the need to go to Lens station proper.[1]
In the early 1990s, the building had passed into the hands of the university[2] and, in 1994,[3] a bronze statue of a miner was installed in the gardens, made by Hungarian artist Daniel Ference Nagy. In the 2020s, Assassin ally Simon Mulio visited the university during his search for a Templar treasure and, after his disappearance, an Abstergo employee tracking him did the same.[1]
