In the center of the square is the statue of Lieutenant General Abraham Duquesne (1610-1688), who commanded his first ship at the age of 17. He defeated Michiel De Ruyter in 1676 and hunted pirates in the Mediterranean. Note the early 18th-century buildings at nos. 18 to 24. A plaque commemorating the chemist Descroizilles hangs at the pharmacy, to whom we owe the coffee filter (a find wrongly attributed to Abbot Belloy

Construction started in the 13th century, but the church was repeatedly renovated. Beautiful rose window above the 14th century central portal. the tower on the facade dates from the 15th century; the chancel and the radiating chapels are from the 16th century. The southern cross arm, on the Rue Sainte-Catherine side, offers a good example of the Primitive Gothic style. The church has 107 gargoyles. The nave (13th century) has balanced proportions and is decorated with a 14th century triforium. The decoration of the skylights was added a century later. Close to the tower, accessible by a staircase decorated with inscriptions, is the first chapel of the right aisle, the Chapelle Saint-Sépulcre (15th century), with a beautiful stone balustrade. the other chapels were donated by shipowners from Dieppe. The organ case dates from 1635. Above the door of the Chapelle du Trésor (sacristy) on the left, see the frieze from 1530, with rows of Brazilian Indians that recall the long journeys of sailors from Dieppe. The transept, the oldest part of the church, supports the central dome, which was rebuilt in the 18th century. The choir has a beautiful star vault and an openwork triforium (16th century). Above the altar is a beautiful wooden statue of Saint James (17th century). To the right of it, a flamboyant violence has been preserved in the Chapelle du Sacré-Coeur.

The church of Saint-Jacques (xiie in the sixteenth century) is flamboyant and Renaissance styles: started in the twelfth century, the church of Saint-Jacques is erected in parish in 1282 by Guillaume de Flavacourt, archbishop of Rouen. The north and south transepts date back to the second half of the twelfth century. The choir, the nave, and the aisles date from the thirteenth century, except for the vaults and the triforium of the nave dating from the fourteenth century. It is also in the fourteenth century that the great portal is built. In the fifteenth century the tower and the chapels on either side of the grand nave of the choir were erected, except two of them which were part of the primitive plan of the church. Inside, the chapel of the Treasury is decorated with a frieze called "wild" which reveals the various nations discovered by sailors and sailors Dieppois. At the request of Jehan Ango, patron of the sixteenth-century church, the artist depicted various scenes of the life of the natives: a procession of festivals and dances, warlike episodes, which many archaeologists and scholars came to observe . Victor Hugo also came to see these real "stone lace", September 8, 1837. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89 Eglise_Saint-Jacques_de_Dieppe
