Lavoir de Tonnerre

This lavoir was built on 1758 on the site of a natural spring that supplied the town with water.  The water from the spring is an unusual green colour as can be seen in the photographs.  This was a fairly large lavoir and had four fireplaces although no evidence of drying rails.

Tonnerre is in department 89 - Yonne and we visited this lavoir on 10th June 2019.
