In 1841, the architect J. B. Martin was charged with establishing a project for a washhouse and watering trough. He proposed cast iron piping and a neo-classical covered washhouse. The roof, initially planned in lava stone, was executed in zinc. In 1895, the water supply was completed by three fountain hydrants and two fire hydrants. The rectangular washhouse presents five architraved bays on the façade and two arcades framing a fountain on each side.
