The presence of the concession at this level of the road to Vannes explains, among other things, the presence of balls, bars and other places of consumption upstream of the concession. Indeed, the spirits served there were sold to customers at lower prices because they were not subject to the city entrance tax.
The grant functioned until October 1943, in full occupation, the president of the Special Delegation proposed the abolition of the Grant, «institution of another age definitively outdated».
The ban was set for 1 January 1944, and the barrier - and thus the Bureau - disappeared along with the others from the road to Vannes.
The former Vannes road concession office has become a hotel bar whose name – which is a given name – recalls that of a very illustrious Austrian composer.
