Its name comes from the arrival of three ambassadors led by Kosa Pan, sent by the King of Siam on the 29 June 1686 to meet Louis XIV in Versailles. They went with six mandarins, three translators, two secretaries and a retinue of servants, loaded with presents. They traveled on the boats l'Oiseau and La Maligne. They crossed Saint-Pierre Street to go to the hostel of the same name.

Opened on 17 July 1954, it was the largest vertical-lift bridge in Europe until the opening of the Pont Gustave-Flaubert in 2008. It links the bottom of the rue de Siam to the quartier de Recouvrance, replacing a swing bridge destroyed by Allied bombardment in 1944. Each pylon is 70m high, and the 525-tonne lift span is 88m long.

Recouvrance is the section of the city of Brest, France which lies on the right bank of the river Penfeld. It is a popularly and historically Breton quarter, in contrast to the largely Francophone quarter of Brest-même or Brest-proper on the left bank. The lift bridge over the Penfeld was named after this neighbourhood, as was a schooner built in 1992 in the city.

It could house 300 prisoners (sometimes as much as 10% of the town's population), children as young as 11 as well as older people. It was demolished in the late 1940s.
Rue Saint-Malo

It is lined with 17th and 18th century houses and overlooked by terraced gardens.
