    The typical and aptly named "Chemin de la Fontaine" leads to a magnificent wash house, a jewel in the town centre. Its stone dome shelters the spring which swells the “Ribonneau” and “Fontenelles” streams; these form the “Brameri” which, a few kilometers further south, becomes “the Bourru”.

    In the 16th century, it would have carried this inscription in Latin: “I nymph of this place, guardian of this fountain, I sleep to the soft murmur of this water. Whoever you are who comes to tread on this resonant stone, respect my sleep. Drink or wash, but in silence”.

    Very pretty wash house and fountain in a small typical village very renowned for its potters from other times
