Lavoir in Cortiambles (71), Saône-et-Loire (71)

The lavoir at Cortiambles, a hamlet in the commune of Givry, has a roof designed to catch rain water in the basin. It was built between 1829 and 1830, on the site of an earlier lavoir, by François Berthelot following plans by Zolla, an architect from Chalon-sur-Saône. It is built of rubble stone, is half-moon shaped, and is a monument historique.
