Cour must mean courtyard, which is obviously different than coeur.

Sorry, I don't speak French, but I do know coeur because the town in Missouri where I lived from age 13 - 18 was named Creve Coeur. Except it was pronounced "Creeve" which I am sure must hurt your ears.

Courtyards are so intriguing!!! What goes on in there ?

The scroling wrought iron has a perfect patina for that beautiful turquoise door. You surely have some of the most exquisite doors in Versailles and I am not thinking about the ones from that famous chateau.

Teal is one of my favorite colours and it works wonderfully with the wrought iron on this door. The courtyard looks inviting.
