This square, created in 1787, is named after Jacques SURIAN (1670-1754), a member of the Académie Française and Bishop of Vence from 1728 to 1754.
There is still a door lintel with an escutcheon bearing the town's coat of arms: ‘Azure, a tower embattled in silver with five masonry pieces of Sable’.
This tower is the only vestige of Vence's ‘Turris Civitatis Vencii’, the ‘city of towers’, meaning that it was once bristling with, defended by and adorned with towers.
