The interior arrangement of the Palais de Justice buildings, whose façade is ornamented with a finely carved semicircular _pediment_, has been changed. Of the old convent there now only remains the Salle des Pas-Perdus, formerly the cloister. The =Hôtel de la Cloche d’Or=, near by, has been installed in the ancient “Procure” of the same monastery (St. Paul’s). [Illustration: THE PALAIS DE JUSTICE] The books and woodwork of the monastery have been removed to the Municipal Library. _Return by the Rue St. Paul to the Rue Chaussée, into which turn to the left; at the end is the_ =Chaussée Gate= (_hist. mon._), built about 1380 (_see pp. 35 and 58_). Its architecture recalls that of the Bastille. Half of the left tower on the river was rebuilt in 1690, exactly on the same lines and with the stones of the old tower; the semicircular arcade and the pediment facing the bridge are of the same date. The pediment between the two towers was struck by shell splinters, otherwise the bombardments did not damage the gate. [Illustration: THE BANKS OF THE MEUSE AND THE CATHEDRAL BEFORE THE WAR.

CROIX BRIDGE. _Photographed from the Military Club in May, 1919._] _Take on the left, the Rue du Puty and the Rue des Tanneries, then the Minimes Bridge (also on the left), at the end of which is_ =St. Saviour’s Church=. [Illustration: ST. SAVIOUR’S CHURCH.] The church is modern, having replaced the old Église des Minimes in 1830. It contains, however, some interesting stained-glass windows, while at the entrance is the tomb of the founder of the old church, Bishop Bousnard, deceased in 1584. [Illustration: THE INTERIOR OF ST. SAVIOUR’S CHURCH.] _Return by the Rue des Tanneries to the Rue du Puty, turn to the left, reaching the_ =Place Chevert= _on the right bank of the Meuse (see photo, p. 37)_. There is a fine view of the upper town, bishop’s palace and cathedral from this square. The latter was begun in 1552, after the Church of St. Croix had been pulled down. A statue of _General Chevert_, by the sculptor of the pediment of the Madeleine in Paris (Lemaire), has been erected on the site of this church. In December, 1916, this statue was removed to the underground vaults of the Citadelle. [Illustration: CHEVERT SQUARE AND STATUE OF GENERAL CHEVERT.
