CONTREXEVILLE

This article appears in Volume V07, Page 45 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: COM-COR
CONTREXEVILLE , a watering-place of north-eastern France, in the department of Vosges, on the Vair, 39 m. W. of Epinal by
rail
 . Pop. (1906) 940. The
mineral
  springs of Contrexeville have been in local repute since a remote period, but became generally known only towards the end of the 18th
century
 ; and the
modern
  reputation of the place as a
health
  resort
dates
  from 1864, when it began to be developed by a company, the Societe des Eaux de Contrexeville, and more particularly from about 1895. In the ten years after this latter date many improvementswere made for the
accommodation
  of visitors, foiwhom the season is from May to September. The waters of the Source Pavilion, which are used chiefly for drinking, have a temperature of 530 F. and are characterized chiefly by the presence of
calcium
  sulphate. They are particularly efficacious in the treatment of
gravel
  and kindred disorders, by the elimination of uric acid.
See Thirty-five years at Contrexeville (1903), by Dr Debout d'Estrees.
