PLOMBIERES LES BAINS
FONTAINE DITE SOURCE DU CRUCIFIX
Description
It is located on the ground floor of the building called >, rue Stanislas. The grid of the crucifix spring is classified as a historical monument, it was created by André Gillot, a student of Jean Lamour who made the grids of the Stanislas square in Nancy. This fountain was originally accessible like the 15 others in the city. Today, you can no longer drink it just to admire it behind the gate. Nowadays, as in the past, a ceremony called the blessing of the baths takes place for the Ascension: the inhabitants gather behind the priest who from the church goes to the Fountain of the Crucifix, then to the Roman Bath Square to bless these beneficial waters.
