"Restaurant 360° panoramique. Une cuisine raffinée de qualité pour un cadre exceptionnel.

Pendant longtemps, le point culminant de Palavas a été le château d'eau.
Ce château d'eau en forme d'un champignon, construit de 1942 à 1943, a servi à alimenter en eau Palavas de 1943 à 1997.
Son coffre de béton contenait la Redoute de Ballestras, ancienne tour de défense du port au XIXe
siècle,
reconvertie en porte-réservoir d'eau. Il était promis à la démolition.
En 1990, la mairie de Palavas imagine la réhabilitation qui pourrait être faite du château d'eau et imagine le projet
de transformer le château d'eau en un restaurant panoramique tournant.
Un pont promenade permettra aux visiteurs de découvrir une vue imprenable sur Palavas-les-Flots et ses alentours :
la Mer Méditerranée, Montpellier, Carnon, La Grande-Motte, Sète.
Les travaux commencent en mars 1998 et se terminent en janvier 2000.
Le phare est inauguré avec l'ouverture d'un bar et devient le 40e restaurant panoramique tournant au monde."

"Restaurant 360 ° panoramic. Fine cuisine of quality for an exceptional setting.

For a long time, the highlight of Palavas was the water tower.
This water tower in the form of a mushroom, built from 1942 to 1943, was used to supply Palavas water from 1943 to 1997.
Its concrete box contained the Redoute de Ballestras, former tower defense port in the nineteenth
century,
reconverted into a water tank carrier. He was promised to demolish.
In 1990, the mayor of Palavas imagine the rehabilitation that could be made of the water tower and imagine the project
to turn the water tower into a rotating panoramic restaurant.
A promenade bridge will allow visitors to discover a breathtaking view of Palavas-les-Flots and its surroundings:
the Mediterranean Sea, Montpellier, Carnon, La Grande-Motte, Sète.
Work begins in March 1998 and ends in January 2000.
The lighthouse is inaugurated with the opening of a bar and becomes the 40th rotating restaurant in the world.
