Passage Raynaud IIIThe Circuit du Chat Perché ('Perched Cat Tour') passes through some surprising places, such as this underground passageway that goes through the ‘Fontaine des Lépreux’ (Fountain of the Lepers) and joins the Canal des Tanneurs. Despite its unattractive name, which stems from a forgotten tradition, this fountain was never used by lepers. The washerwomen used to wash clothes in this basin, whose water gushes directly from the rock. This is a Vauclusian resurgence, a gush of water from an underground river.
