Lavoir de Jouy-la-Fontaine, Public washhouse in Jouy-le-Moutier, France.
The stone structure features a central basin with sloped washing stones and a roofed shelter protecting users from weather conditions.
Built in 1850, this lavoir was one of five public washhouses serving the Jouy-le-Moutier community throughout the nineteenth century.
Women gathered at this communal facility to wash clothes, exchange news, and maintain social connections within their local community.
The washing facility contains two basins: a large one for primary washing and a smaller one for rinsing vegetables or final cloth soaking.
Located opposite the thirteenth-century Maison des Moines, this lavoir incorporates an atrium design that collects rainwater to supplement the basin.
