Historique
Autrefois salle de justice et halle aux grains, la halle s'élève sur deux constructions voûtées en pierre ayant servi d'ateliers, de boutiques et de prison. En 1911, les travaux de restauration ont supprimé l'anneau de fer qui servait à attacher les prisonniers et les mesures de grain.

History
Formerly a hall of justice and grain market, the hall stands above two vaulted stone constructions which served as workshops, shops and a prison. In 1911, restoration work removed the iron ring which served to attach the prisoners and the grain measures.
