Former Wattwiller water bottling plant

The Romans, followed by the prince-abbots of Murbach, operated the baths here and made them famous.
From 1522 to 1712, the town of Wattwiller managed the baths. Then, for 27 years, Murbach took over before an exchange took place.

The baths were managed by various owners until February 1866, when a company was formed. On 29 August 1865, the government declared the springs to be of public interest. In 1870, the manager bought the complex and it was a success!
After his death, the establishment closed for two years before reopening in 1896, when it enjoyed its most prosperous period until 1914.

The building constructed after the Great War housed a bottling plant which marketed a still water called ‘Arsène’ and a sparkling water called ‘Lithia’ until 1975.

The François Schneider Foundation has restored the site to turn it into a centre for contemporary art.
