Come and discover the fountains of the city, to know the history and architecture of this heritage.
If the Langrois limestone spur has proved a manna for a defense of the city, it conditions the absence of natural water points within walls, most of the springs springing a few tens of meters below the ramparts. Natural resources essential to the daily needs, they have been domesticated by man since the highest antiquity and have always been the subject of a particular intention on the part of the Langrois aldermen. From the Fountain of the President to the Saint-Antoine Fountain and those of Saint-Didier and Saint-Nicolas, this visit is an opportunity to evoke the history and architecture of this original and high-quality heritage.
