The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La halle et les maisons qui l'entourent peuvent avoir été bâties peu de temps après la création de la bastide, en 1284. La charpente est constituée par des pièces de bois équarries. Une construction carrée a été ajoutée au centre de la halle, qui servit jusqu'à la Révolution de dépôts et l'étage de salle de réunion des conseils de ville. Le campanile a été refait.

The hall and the houses which surround it may have been built shortly after the creation of the bastide, in 1284. The roof structure is constituted by squared pieces of timber. A square construction was added to the centre of the hall, which served until the Revolution for stores and the upper storey for a meeting hall for the town councils. The campanile was remade.
