The Aître Saint Maclou - a former ossuary where they kept bones of the people who died during the plague.  

In the wall of the ossuary they locked a live black cat when they were building it.  This is to chase away the bad spirits and to bring good luck.  Obviously the cat died in the wall and they discovered it when they were doing work on the building.
