Place of
the career

Khaled Frikha

Third site of the UNESCO architectural ensemble of the 18th century, this square created in the 16th century, then remodeled in the 18th, was originally a place of jousts and tournaments, hence its name of "Carrière". At the entrance to the square, two buildings face each other: the Hôtel de Craon (Court of Appeal) and the Bourse du Commerce (Administrative Court). At the other end, stands the Palais du Gouvernement, framed by a hemicycle, decorated with ancient divinities, which housed, under Stanislas, the intendant, representative of the King of France.
