More information on Place Salengro

This is one of the six town squares built by Jean-Pascal Virebent in the 18th century. The beautiful fountain, which was added in 1853, depicts children kneeling in front of a turtle below pairs of herons and kingfishers. The buildings around the square have housed some of Toulouse's most famous residents: Pierre-Paul Riquet, who dedicated his life to building the Canal du Midi, once lived at number 1, and Jean Jaurès lived at number 20 for about ten years.
