The house has been converted into a permanent exhibition space on the operation and history of the old pumping station

Created in 1853 and closed in 1971, Cahors' first drinking water plant used the hydraulic power of the Lot to draw water from the naturally potable Chartreux fountain. Today, the plant, still equipped with its original machinery, features an exhibition on its operation, the history of the pumping station, the Valentré bridge and water in Cahors and around the world. An original and entertaining visit, with a little extra: after your visit, you can enjoy the terrace overlooking the Valentré Bridge.

Joli endroit

A notre arrivée les 3 quarts de la carte affichés à l’entrée n’étaient pas disponibles. La tenancière est désagréable, dépassée et pas du tout commerçante. Passez votre chemin….

Ce jour, a la buvette : vente de cartes postales tordues. Serveuse très désagréable et débordée. Des clients en terrasse qui attendent depuis longtemps. Bah en fait on voulait juste des glaces a emporter mais on est vite parti ailleurs.

Très belles expositions entre l'eau potable de Cahors, le pont Valentré et le Groenland.

Je recommande fortement ce musée à découvrir, et en plus gratuit!

Aller sur le site pour toutes informations complémentaires, il est très bien fait et simple.
