FR Pendant des siècles, pour faire entrer des marchandises de toutes nature dans les villes, il fallait payer l'octroi, une sorte de droit de douane intérieur. Avant d'être supprimé après la libération, on, suppose que l'octroi de Manosque était situé à cet endroit. Un étroit passage dans lequel on peut encore voir un immeuble de la fin du Moyen Age et sa grande pièce voûtée, relie la place à la Rue Grande.
EN For centuries, to bring goods of all kinds into cities, it was necessary to pay the octroi, a kind of internal customs duty. Before being deleted after the liberation, it is assumed that Manosque's grant was located there. A narrow passage in which you can still see a building from the late Middle Ages and its large vaulted room, connects the square to Rue Grande.
