Summary edit

Description
Français : Le passage Agard et son potelet d'information, Aix-en-Provence (France). Vue depuis la place de Verdun.

Le couvent des grands Carmes s’établit dans ce quartier en 1359. Il fut saisi, vendu, divisé en habitations et en partie détruit durant la Révolution. Toutefois certains magasins du passage conservent sa mémoire et montrent des sculptures médiévales et des arcs gothiques dans leurs murs.
En 1825 un temple protestant y fut ouvert.

Entre 1846 et 1849 Félicien Agard, directeur des Salins du Midi et membre de l’Académie d’Aix racheta ce qui restait du couvent et décida d’ouvrir au public une communication entre le cours Mirabeau et la place du Palais de Justice (Place de Verdun). Il ne put réaliser entièrement son projet, face à l’opposition d’un propriétaire et la galerie se termine par un étroit goulot. Des boutiques, des imprimeurs et des ateliers s’installèrent dans cette nouvelle ruelle à l’aspect pittoresque et industrieux, désormais appelée Passage Agard.
