This 18th century aqueduct used to bring the city's water over 14 km from the Saint-Clément spring to the water tower in Peyrou.
Thanks to this structure, Montpellier can supply the numerous fountains scattered around the city. The neighborhood surrounding part of the aqueduct, Les Arceaux (the arches) draws its name from the double layer of arches extending over 800m.
