Parc des Sources

The Parc des Sources, thermal heart of Vichy

Located in the heart of the city centre, the Parc des Sources is the historic and thermal heart of Vichy. The Vichy audio-guided tour stops here to evoke this vast green space, surrounded by covered galleries, around which the spa town developed.

The green lung of the spa town

With an area of more than fifty-nine thousand square metres, the Parc des Sources extends in the heart of Vichy. As its former name indicates, it gathered the sources around which the spa resort was built. Encircled by an elegant covered gallery that protected the spa-goers, planted with fine trees, it is the historic heart of the Queen of Spa Towns, now inscribed on the World Heritage list with the great spa towns of Europe.
