Place du lavoir, 30650 Rochefort-du-Gard
The Lavoir With its Doric columns, it was designed in 1778 and built in 1807. It was completely restored in 1999 by the commune's technical services.
In 2006, with the support of the town and various partners, the "Igo y Font" association rebuilt the washhouse fountain to its original condition.
Some say that an inscription on the back wall read "Ici on lave le linge et on salit les réputations" ("Here we wash clothes and soil reputations"). The inscription has now disappeared.
