User:BuckyAdopt/Reuilly barrier

The Reuilly barrier is a former barrier of octroi of the wall of the Farmers-General.

Location
The Reuilly barrier was located at the place of the Reuilly barrier at the intersection of Reuilly street with the Bercy Boulevard and Charenton Boulevard (currently Reuilly Boulevard) at the location of the current Félix Éboué square.

Origin of the name
It was called "Reuilly barrier" because it was located on the Reuilly street.

History
Its construction was halted following a decree from the State Council of 7 along with all the works of the enclosure.

It was made up of a single pavilion in a round surrounded by a colonnade.

It was infrequently used, its surroundings still being sparsely constructed in 1857.

The barrier was abolished in 1860 with all the barriers of the farmers-general wall when the octroi was moved to the Thiers Wall and the pavilions disappeared.
