\u00ab D\u00e8s 1411, un compte \u00e9voque \u00ab la porte maistre Guy Guilliere \u00bb\u2026  Attest\u00e9 de 1382 \u00e0 1412, ma\u00eetre Guy Guilli\u00e8re \u00e9tait un important notable de la ville : issu d\u2019une famille anciennement implant\u00e9e \u00e0 Semur, c\u2019\u00e9tait un juriste \u2013 il \u00e9tait licenci\u00e9 en droit civil \u2013, bien int\u00e9gr\u00e9 \u00e0 la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 politique du duch\u00e9 (il fit partie d\u2019une ambassade envoy\u00e9e par les villes vers les autorit\u00e9s ducales) et tr\u00e8s riche (il pr\u00eata plusieurs fois de fortes sommes d\u2019argent \u00e0 l\u2019\u00c9tat ducal). Quel lien entretenait-il avec la principale porte de la ville, comment expliquer que son nom f\u00fbt attach\u00e9 \u00e0 celle-ci ? La r\u00e9ponse \u00e0 la question est incertaine : il en \u00e9tait peut-\u00eatre le portier, fonction honorifique pris\u00e9e par les grands bourgeois et susceptible de conf\u00e9rer d\u2019appr\u00e9ciables privil\u00e8ges, comme l\u2019exemption d\u2019imp\u00f4ts urbains ; il pouvait aussi y r\u00e9sider, comme le sugg\u00e8re un r\u00f4le de fouage de 1403 qui montre que \u00ab maistre Guy Guilli\u00e8re \u00bb habitait au Bourg et plus pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment \u00e0 une extr\u00e9mit\u00e9 de ce quartier.\u00bb <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guillier Gate: Built in 1328, this gate, due to its height, dominates the Semur landscape. Its facade offers a fine example of twin and trefoil openings, of which only a few examples remain in the city. Porte Sauvigny: Built in 1444 to reinforce the defense of the Porte Guillier, it has on its facade the grooves in which the arms of the drawbridge were embedded. Next to it, the trace of the location of the pedestrian bridge remains. This gate was protected by a ditch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the arch between the two doors we can read this sentence \u201cThe Semurois take great delight in the acquaintances of foreigners\u201d Its author is Fran\u00e7ois de Belleforest, a 16th century writer who intended to publish \u201cThe Universal Cosmography of Everyone\u201d . It seems that, when he came to Semur, he received an excellent welcome from the then mayor Philibert Espiard. <\/em> <\/em>It’s a bit like the motto of the city’s inhabitants: welcome everyone!<\/em> <\/em>We also find under a capital of the vault a nicely naughty sculpture (or with very notable attributes)<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
