P'TIT QUINQUIN

 
P'tit Quinquin is a lullaby composed by Alexandre Desrousseaux in 1853. The words tell the story of a poor woman who is working as a lacemaker to support her baby. After the writer's death a memorial was put up at the entrance of Square Foch (a short walk from Place Rihour). This statue has become a famous landmark in the city.
