The Saint-Nicolas fountain was originally dedicated to Saint Justin, but was renamed after the statue of Saint Nicolas when the chapel dedicated to him fell into ruin and was demolished.

The water from the fountain was once reputed to cure whooping cough. The large adjoining wash-house was used until the ^20th century.
