The fire buckets have the distinction of having the curved bottom so we do not use them as trash. Thus, we must present them or store them upside down, or plugged into a stem, ready to use.

Quarries of Saint-Cloud, in the Trocadero Park

The underground quarries of Saint-Cloud (of coarse limestone) are used as building stone. The grand facade of the Colonnade of the Louvre is partly made with this stone. The rest comes from the underground quarry of Saint-Leu Esserent. It also used the stone to build the castle of Saint-Cloud, located a few tens of meters from the quarry.

The walls of building quarry were partially dismantled to get new stones. They were used to renovate the castle of Saint-Cloud in the 19th century. However, the consequences of a large fire, the foundations were razed. The stones stolen are become useless.

Built in 1522, the castle of the bull is a defensive fortification. It was upgraded by Vauban in 1700. The work took about 45 years. The castle of the bull has never been a major military role. It has been used as a prison for a long time. In 1914 he was classified a historical monument. This does not prevent the Germans using it as DCA during the Second World War. After the war, the sailing school Morlaix settles for 20 years. Then in 1980, it is abandoned. Fishermen love to come and make a fire to eat but they ransacked the wood fittings. Today it is finally restored and visited by the public.
