Rear facade of the Batiment des Gardes with monumental portico with Doric columns and an artificial grotto, forming the entrance to the Royal Saltworks or Saline Royale, begun 1775 in Neoclassical style by architect Claude Nicolas Ledoux, 1736-1806, at Arc-et-Senans, Doubs, Bourgogne-Franche-Comte, France. This building is now used as a ticket office and a hotel. The site is designed in a semicircle, with the Director's House, 2 saltworks containing drying ovens, heating pots and salt stores, workers' accommodation and Director's stables. An Ideal City was also planned but never built. The site is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
