The Ménerbes wash house was built in 1908, attached to the village's public fountain for watering beasts of burden. It is protected by a roof resting on six square pillars and has two end-to-end basins, lined with wash stones. In the center, the partition that separates the two basins supports an iron ring through which once passed a long cylindrical beam used to place wet, soaped or rinsed laundry. In the past, small fireplaces were used to heat water in washing machines.

A friendly place, this public wash house was used for a long time by the villagers. Even today it remains a place for meetings and meetings.
