The media library is in a wing of the Palace Light. The Light palace is at origin a thermal establishment. Conceived(Designed) by the architect Ernest Brunarius, the establishment is inaugurated in 1902\. It is one of the most beautiful stories of the architecture of the cities of waters of the beginning of the XXth century. Having located facing lake, facing the neighbourhood of the town hall (old(former) villa of the Lumière brothers), it enjoys a central and privileged location.
In 1996, the City of Evian becomes again possessing the building(ship) and is concerned about its conservation. Shortly after, his(her,its) main facade, his(her,its) entrance hall, his(her,its) hall and his(her,its) decorations(sets) are registered on the inventory of Historic monuments. The main hall was in the past a place of society life(polite small talk) which made at once service(office) of waiting room and of refreshment bar. Lighted(Enlightened) by beautiful stained-glass windows, it was restored as before.
It shelters especially four allegoric statues of sources(springs), signed by the sculptor Louis-Charles Beylard. The side walls of the entry porch are adorned with two stuck paintings(cloths), "Nymphs to the Source(Spring)" and "Nymphs at the water's edge", attributed(awarded) to Jean D. Benderly, raises(brings up) Puvis of Chavanne. The main facade alternates white stone and straw-coloured earthenware. It is an only choice in Leman thermal architecture. Moreover, the building found the dome which combed(put on) it at origin. Since 2006, the establishment, rechristened the Light palace, shelters a cultural area (media library and exhibition halls) as well as a centre of congress.
