La Fontaine chaude is a spa located in the centre of Dax. The fountain is a Monument historique while the portico and relics were registered on September 9, 1988.〔http://www.culture.gouv.fr/public/mistral/merimee_fr?ACTION=CHERCHER&FIELD_1=REF&VALUE_1=PA00083940〕 The fountain was built from 1814 to 1818, under the reign of Louis XVIII, upon the remains of older therms from the Roman period which given the waters' high temperature (60°C) could also be used for cooking. The water is well-known for its healing properties. A legend reports of a garrisoned Roman soldier who had a dog crippled with rheumatism. On call-up and aware that his poor dog could no longer follow him, he resorted to through it into the Adour river. On his return he was overwhelmed to find his dog reanimated by the thermal mud where it had ended up on the riverbank. The water is also employed to treat phlebological and gynicological disorders. The "Dax Peloid" is a natural medication, obtained from the spa waters along with algae and silt from the Adour river.〔http://www.dax-tourisme.com/fr/cure-thermale/〕 Image:Dax_Fontaine_chaude2.jpg File:Dax Fontaine chaude 1.jpg File:Dax Fontaine chaude 2.jpg File:Dax Fontaine chaude 3.jpg File:Dax Fontaine chaude 4.jpg ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fontaine Chaude」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
