Pavillon de Manse, Historical watermill and monument in Chantilly, France
The Pavillon de Manse features classical architecture with hydraulic machinery designed to supply water to the gardens of Chantilly Castle.
Built in 1678 by Jules Hardouin-Mansart for the Prince de Conde, the pavilion housed a water pumping system for the gardens created by Andre Le Notre.
The pavilion now functions as an interpretation center where visitors learn about historical hydraulic engineering through demonstrations and exhibitions.
Located at 34 Cascade Street, the pavilion opens Tuesday through Sunday from 2 PM to 6 PM between May and October.
The building contains the Duke of Aumale's 19th-century mechanized laundry facility and restored hydraulic machines that demonstrate water distribution systems.
