Court house in the former residence of the bishop in Saint-Omer, with a room with carved cherubs.
Since 1795, the Palais de Justice has occupied the former residence of the bishop, whose plans are attributed to Jules Hardouin-Mansart. The plans are attributed to Jules Hardouin-Mansart, the architect of Louis XIV, who contributed to the development of a certain taste for French classicism in Saint-Omer. The imprint of the period is clearly visible on the pediment of the building, dominated by a beautiful sun, the symbol of the monarch of the time.
Only the courtroom of the civil court, the former dining room of the bishop, has kept its original decoration, in panelling sculpted with cherubs.
