Évaux-les-Bains (; ) is a commune in the Creuse department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region in central France.
==History== A spa town founded by the Romans in the first century, who developed thermal baths and called the place “Ivaonum,” possibly after a deity, Ivaos. It became a place of pilgrimage after the sixth century, because of the tomb of the Christian hermit Marien.
