Plombieres-les-bains hotels - About Plombieres-les-bains
Plombières-les-Bains is a commune and "spa town" of France, situated in the the French département of Vosges in the region of Lorraine.
Les bains refers to the hot springs in the area, whose properties were first discovered by the Romans. In succeeding centuries, its baths were visited by Montaigne, Voltaire, the Dukes of Guise, the Dukes of Lorraine, Beaumarchais, Napoleon Bonaparte, Joséphine de Beauharnais, Napoléon III, Berlioz, Lamartine and Alfred de Musset.
The "Pavilion of the Princes" at Plombières, known in less interesting times as the administrative offices of the thermal station, achieved retrospective fame as the meeting place on July 12, 1858 between Napoleon III and the Camillo Benso, conte di Cavour, who secretly negotiated the “Treaty of Plombières.” This accord granted French aid to the cause of Piedmont-Sardinia against the Austrian Empire in return for the territories of Savoy and Nice, which thereafter became French territory.
