History
Houses forming a set of medieval façades on the square, dating back to the 14th century. Only the north side of the square is complete, the houses being decorated with a balcony. On the south side, only one house has retained its corner post and pointed roof. Most of the roofing was redone in the 18th century. The houses with corner posts on the west side have their garden wall or other façade resting on the old ramparts.
