The history and architecture of Place Sainte-Catherine

The long Place Sainte-Catherine stretches in front of and behind the Church of Saint Catherine (Église Sainte-Catherine). The square was created in 1870 on the site of a canal basin. All the surrounding buildings were demolished at that time. Only the Black Tower and the tower of the old church remained. Nevertheless, Place Sainte-Catherine is still an architecturally charming ensemble.
