A noted health spa and resort, Vichy has many thermal alkaline springs used since Roman period. After the Second French Empire, the Belle \u00C9poque marked the second large construction campaign in Vichy. In 1903 the Opera House (l'Op\u00E9ra), the Hall of Springs and a large bath designed in the eastern style (the Grand \u00C9tablissement Thermal) were inaugurated. Architect Charles Lecoeur was assisted by Lucien Woog.
