Note: "Familistère" is the name given by Jean-Baptiste André Godin (1817-1888) to apartment buildings he built for his workers and their families, from 1858 until 1883. He was a French industrialist, writer and political theorist, and social innovator. He built an industrial and residential community within Guise called the Familistère (Social Palace) from 1856-1859. He ultimately converted it to cooperative ownership and management by workers. His intention was to improve housing for workers, but also "production, trade, supply, education, and recreation", all the facets of life of a modern worker. He developed the Familistère as a self-contained community within the town, where he could encourage "social sympathy". The full site with the foundry was about eighteen acres, on either side of the River Oise. In addition to a large factory for cast-iron manufacture, three large buildings, each four stories high, were constructed to house all the workers and their families, with each family having apartments of two or three rooms. The main building consisted of three rectangular blocks joined at the corners. Each of these blocks had a large central court covered with a glass roof under which children could play in all weather. Galleries around the courtyard provided access to the apartments on each floor. There were also garden allotments for the workers. By 1872, 900 workers (including women) and their families were housed there, for a total population of about 1200. In 1880 Godin created the association documents for the Familistère, converting it as he had long intended into a co-operative society, eventually to be owned by the workers. It was called l'Association coopérative du Capital et du Travail.
