The hot fountain known as the Nèhe spring takes its name from a Norse goddess of water. It is built over what is believed to be an ancient Roman bath. The water is at a temperature of 64°C and along with the mineralization of the water and silt from the local Ardor River, a thermal mud is made which is used locally as a rheumatology treatment.

A particularly impressive testimony to the ancient history of the city is the thermal fountain (La Fontaine Chaude) - also Source de la Nèhe: This building was erected in the 19th century on the site of a Roman thermal bath. The spring produces 2.4 million liters of water at a temperature of 64 ° C every day. The water rises from a depth of 2000 m. The quarter of the meat and poultry traders used to be here. The housewives used the hot water to boil their eggs and pluck their poultry.
