Ras\u00e9e durant la premi\u00e8re moiti\u00e9 du XIXe<\/sup><\/span> si\u00e8cle pour \u00e9largir le passage et faciliter la circulation, la porte Bouqueyre fut durant plus de 600 ans l\u2019unique acc\u00e8s \u00e0 Saint-\u00c9milion depuis la vall\u00e9e.<\/p>\n

La rue de la Porte Bouqueyre, mentionn\u00e9e d\u00e8s 1211, est la plus ancienne attest\u00e9e \u00e0 Saint-\u00c9milion. Son nom fait r\u00e9f\u00e9rence aux bouchers dont les \u00e9tals bordaient la rue.<\/strong> Au milieu du pav\u00e9, s\u2019\u00e9coulait le ruisseau de la Grande Fontaine, canalis\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019arri\u00e8re des maisons depuis le milieu du XIXe<\/sup><\/span> si\u00e8cle. La rue voisine de la Petite Fontaine \u00e9tait elle aussi parcourue par un modeste ruisseau qui faisait office d\u2019\u00e9gout \u00e0 ciel ouvert. Ces deux petits cours d\u2019eau, aujourd\u2019hui canalis\u00e9s et d\u00e9vi\u00e9s dans les jardins \u00e0 l\u2019arri\u00e8re des maisons, se rejoignaient avant de franchir le mur d\u2019enceinte, puis se jetaient dans le Fongaban en contrebas de l\u2019actuelle place Bouqueyre.<\/p>\n

Durant les guerres de Religion, une vaste barbacane de plan triangulaire vient renforcer la d\u00e9fense de la porte Bouqueyre. Si cette fortification avanc\u00e9e a disparu de longue date, la place actuelle conserve la m\u00e9moire de sa forme. Le seul vestige visible est la petite \u00e9chauguette, isol\u00e9e sur le c\u00f4t\u00e9 de la place, qui donnait \u00e0 l\u2019origine sur le chemin de ronde et permettait aux gardes de s\u2019abriter.<\/p>\n
