Important scenes took place in this square during the siege of Calais between 1346 and 1347. Six citizens of Calais, known as the “glorious citizens”, surrendered to King Edward III of England to save their city. This heroic moment was later immortalized in the famous bronze sculpture “Les Bourgeois de Calais” by Auguste Rodin.
