The house has been converted into a permanent exhibition space on the operation and history of the old pumping station

The town's first drinking water plant, created in 1853 and closed in 1971, it used the hydraulic power of the Lot to pump water from the naturally potable Chartreux fountain.

The original machinery has now been restored, and the building has been converted into an exhibition space where visitors can learn more about the history and operation of the old pumping station, discover the Valentré Bridge, and learn about water in Cahors and around the world. An original and entertaining visit. Tip: after your visit, take advantage of the terrace facing Pont Valentré (April to October).

A notre arrivée les 3 quarts de la carte affichés à l’entrée n’étaient pas disponibles. La tenancière est désagréable, dépassée et pas du tout commerçante. Passez votre chemin….

Ce jour, a la buvette : vente de cartes postales tordues. Serveuse très désagréable et débordée. Des clients en terrasse qui attendent depuis longtemps. Bah en fait on voulait juste des glaces a emporter mais on est vite parti ailleurs.

Très belles expositions entre l'eau potable de Cahors, le pont Valentré et le Groenland.

Je recommande fortement ce musée à découvrir, et en plus gratuit!

Aller sur le site pour toutes informations complémentaires, il est très bien fait et simple.

Très instructif, joli petit musée qui vaut le détour. L'exposition sur le Groenland est superbe. Ne pas hésiter à s'y arrêter...
