France: Vichy

Last Thursday I got three postcards from France.

Two of them show various views of Vichy. Vichy is a city in Central France. It is an important spa and resort town and as one of the Great Spas of Europe it seeks for the inclusion on the UNESCO World Heritage List. During World War II it was the seat of government of Vichy France.

EDIT: As one of The Great Spa Towns of Europe is Vichy since July 2021 on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
