The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La construction du lavoir se situe autour de 1880, période à laquelle la commune se préoccupe d'améliorer les conditions d'habitat par une meilleure adduction d'eau, de nouveaux puits et l'utilisation de pompes. L'ouvrage se compose d'un abreuvoir circulaire en pierre de taille, d'un bassin et passage interne en béton, d'une charpente sur huit piliers en chêne et peuplier, d'une couverture en tuiles à crochets.

The construction of the wash-house dates to around 1880, a period when the commune was concerned with improving housing conditions through better water supply, new wells and the use of pumps. The structure consists of a circular stone trough, an internal concrete basin and passage, a roof structure on eight pillars of oak and poplar, a covering of hooked tiles.
