What is Lavoir?
A '''lavoir''' is a public place where people were able to wash their clothes. Very often, these basins were near a [[river]]. Such places were built from about the 18th century onwards. Today, many have been restored and are [[tourist]] attractions. <gallery> File:Chénières Lavoir 1.jpg|Lavoir in [[Chénières]] File:Bonnat lavoir 0425.jpg|Lavoir in [[Bonnat]] File:Bourgogne_Noyers-sur-Serein_lavoir_2.jpg|Lavoir in [[Noyers, Yonne]] </gallery> {{stub}} [[Category:Buildings and structures]]
