Le Belfroi (Belfry), Boulogne - a photo on Flickriver

Le Belfroi (Belfry), Boulogne

            Very distinctive church-like tower overlooking a wide street, once used as a prison, now a world heritage building.

It's a curious picture I think, apparently taken through glass, perhaps from a shop or café on this side of the street.  I suppose they are just photographing the scene as they see it.  A man with a very elderly-looking wheelbarrow is visible.  One of the large houses over the road appears to be braced with very unusual scaffolding or something, looks like a serious structural repair is going on.  I think the picture is from about 1950, but alas I have no reference information.
