Mont de Piété
Where it comes from
French
noun Monts de Piété
- A European pawnbroking establishment, especially one with charitable aims. It is interesting to note that one of the entrances to the Mont de Piété is reserved for clients who wish to raise money on deeds, and I have seen cabmen very busy in bringing to it people who quite shamelessly hold their papers in their hands.
