"Monuments II - Aqueduct" Montpellier Things to Do Tip by Kate-Me

Montpellier Things to Do: 55 reviews and 109 photos

 
 

The Saint-Clement Aqueduct dates from the 17th century, covering an 800m span across the "The Arches" district of the city; it was used to bring water from the St Clément spring 14 km away.
The aqueduct emptied into a water tank near the Arc de Triomphe (which is very close by), from where the water would run downhill to fill fountains and public water points.

Directions: near the Jardin des Plantes

Review Helpfulness: 2.5 out of 5 stars
