Pierre du Châtel, and the adjoining monastery of the Cordeliers.
After a lapse of less than fifty years, Rouen saw rising within herwalls a second castle, the work of Duke Richard Ist, and long theresidence of the Norman sovereigns. This, from a tower of great strengthwhich formed a part of it, and which was not demolished till the year1204, acquired the appellation of _la Vieille Tour_; and the nameremains to this day, though the building has disappeared.
The space formerly occupied by the sci...te of it is now covered by the_halles_, considered the finest in France. The historians of Rouen, inthe usual strain of hyperbole, hint that their _halles_ are even thefinest in the world[52], though they are very inferior to theirprototypes at Bruges and Ypres. The hall, or exchange, allotted to themercers, is two hundred and seventy-two feet in length, by fifty feetwide: those for the drapers and for wool are, each of them, two hundredfeet long; and all these are surpassed in size by the corn-hall, whoselength extends to three hundred feet.
