Pavillon de l'eau
The Pavillon de l'eau is a museum devoted to water belonging to the City of Paris and managed by Eau de Paris, the municipal agency in charge of production and distribution of water in Paris. The Pavillon de l’eau offers a permanent exhibition about the water supply history of the city, temporary exhibitions, children's activities (educational workshops, screenings, performances etc.) and thematic meetings.
== History ==
In 1828, on the ancient road to Versailles, a steam pump was installed in order to pump water from the Seine to supply the municipalities of Auteuil and Passy.
At the end of the nineteenth century, the old steam pumps are obsolete. Consequently, the City Council of Paris voted the construction of a new pumping station to take advantage of the latest technological innovations. The station (named station A) consists of two buildings, the engine room and boiler room, both characterized by a brick structure and large roofs topped by skylights that allow a wide ventilation and lighting.
However, even this new pumping station becomes outdated, especially regarding its coal consumption. So at the end of the First World War a new project is launched to be attached to the existing pump, the station B (powered electrically from 1952). In 1955, the station A is dismantled and the engine room is primarily used as a garage, and then as an office for administrative services until 2007, when the Pavillon de l'eau is inaugurated.〔''L'usine d'Auteuil, mise en scène de l'Eau à Paris'', Henri Bresler SAGEP〕
