The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
La grande fontaine se situait à distance du village, sur le versant sud, avec l'abreuvoir pour le bétail, et un lavoir. Il ne subsiste plus que l'édicule de la fontaine du 18e siècle, et des vestiges de bassins. L'édicule, engagé dans le versant, comporte une chambre de source carrée, voûtée en berceau. Sa façade en pierre de taille est formée par un arc en plein cintre à large voussure en cavet, surmonté par un fronton.

History
The great fountain was located at a distance from the village, on the southern slope, with the watering trough for livestock, and a wash house. Only the 18th century fountain aedicule remains, and vestiges of basins. The aedicule, set into the slope, comprises a square spring chamber, barrel vaulted. Its ashlar stone façade is formed by a round arch with a wide cove voussure, surmounted by a pediment.
