Rue aux Ours, near the rue de la Vicomté, was erected between the years 1526 and 1557.

Saint-Étienne-des-Tonneliers

The construction of this edifice, dates from the commencement of the XVIth century.

Sainte-Croix

Rue Sainte-Croix-des-Pelletiers, at the top of the street.

Saint-Sépulchre

At the corner of the streets Saint-George and de la Vicomté.

Saint-Laurent

In the street of that name. Its tower merits principally the attention of the traveller; it was commenced in 1490 and finished in 1501. The screen of Saint-Laurent was considered a chef-d’œuvre of architecture.
