Descriptive Note Text
The Compagnie de Vichy (Compagnie Fermière de l'établissement thermal de Vichy) based in Vichy, France, is a company active in the hydrotherapy, hotel and bottled water business. One of the oldest companies in France, the Compagnie de Vichy was created in the middle of the 19th century to manage the thermal heritage that the State possessed in Vichy.
The charming Vichy kiosk was white in color, and had a rounded structure, with a circular dome supported by columns. In the center of what was named "The Water Temple" was a statuary group made of maidens carrying jugs of water. It was located in the gardens of the French section and was designed by architect Albert Guilbert.
It was listed as number 16 in the Plan Officiel de la Section Française.
