"Armen de Poth" is an old court with houses and a chapel. Until 1957 old and poor people lived here for free. It's an old institution but the houses date from the 19th century. The chapel was built in 1507. It was dedicated to St. Rochus, protector against the black plague, which seems to indicate that the first inhabitants of the court were not only old and poor but sick as well.
