Square of the green lover
Until the construction of the Pont Neuf, the Ile de la Cité ended in the Jardin du Roi, which was built in the Place Dauphine. The current peak of the island consists of a combination of three islands in the City, central seat of the new bridge. The island's north island named Patriarch, extended to the east by a tiny island with a mill, called the Gourdaine, then the Mint, because its waterpower was used to power the royal mint. The South, the largest, was called Bureau Island, because it belonged to Hugh Bureau at the end of the fifteenth century. On 11 March 1314, Jacques de Molay, Grand Master of the order of the KnightsTemplar, and Guy, Commander of Knights Templar of Normandy, were burned alive.
