Bagneres-de-Luchon, also referred to as Luchon, is a spa town and a commune in the Haute-Garonne department in southwestern France. Bagneres-de-Luchon is located 87 m. S.S.W. of Toulouse, at the end of a branch line of the Southern railway from Montrejeau. The town is situated at the foot of the central Pyrenees in a beautiful valley at the confluence of the One and the Pique.
Bagneres-de-Luchon is celebrated for its thermal springs. The springs, which number forty eight, vary in composition, but are chiefly impregnated with sodium sulfate, and range in temperature from 62 to 150 Fahrenheit. The discovery of numerous Roman remains attests the antiquity of the baths, which are identified with the Onesiorum Thermae of Strabo.
Bagneres-de-Luchon is celebrated as a fashionable resort. Of the promenades, the finest and most frequented are the Allees d’Etigny, an avenue planted with lime-trees, at the southern extremity of which is the Thermes, or hot baths. The road is lined with bars and restaurants.
