This building is one of the more recognisable at the heart of Vichy. It is a strange mixture of domes and towers that have been covered in tiles to decorate them, making for an unusual and not unpleasant aesthetic experience. Originally, this building was designed to deal with the large amount of warm springs that rise nearby. However after being built in 1903 and enlarged again about thirty years later, the building was then turned into one of the towns top shopping arcades.
