Collonges
This is the most important spring in the village.
The washhouse was built on the foundations of the "Tour de la Fontaine", then enhanced in 1830 with an almost square building with a classical-style colonnade. It was classified as a Historic Monument in 1973.
Like a sanctuary, it serves as a setting for the precious spring, symbolically represented by a statue of the Virgin Mary placed in a niche.
The four-sided roof with a steep slope is covered with scale tiles topped with a weather vane. It was used to turn a walnut oil mill.
