Town Hall Pump
Town Hall Pump is a late-19th-century cast-iron manual water pump placed beside the town hall. Once vital for daily water needs, it now serves as a charming heritage feature decorated with flowers in its stone basin.
Located beside the Sennecey-le-Grand Town Hall, Town Hall Pump is a well-preserved 19th-century hand-operated water pump. Made of cast iron and mounted on a stone platform, it originally supplied water to the administrative quarter and nearby houses. Its long lever and stone trough reflect the rural water-distribution systems before modern plumbing. Today, the pump no longer functions but is beautifully enhanced with cascading flowers, making it both a historic artifact and an aesthetic feature in the village center.
