=== Market and Place du Coq === {{Unreferencedsect|date=June 2023}} [[File:Marchecayenne.JPG|thumb|left|Right aisle of the Cayenne market.]] [[File:Placeducoq.JPG|thumb|La place du Coq.]] These two adjoining buildings are located near the old port of Cayenne. As early as 1703, a Place du Port appears on a map of the city of Cayenne. It then became Place du Marché in 1842. In 1888, a covered market and a public garden were built there. In 1907 the municipal council led by mayor Eugène Gobert decided to remove the garden and build a new covered market, the one we know today. In 1920 the [[war memorial]] of the [[First World War]] was inaugurated on the site of the old market, surmounted by a rooster, which gave the place its current name.
