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 Vichy charming kiosk, devoted to the Vichy mineral water, has 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.
