Sign Sense?

There is an intersection in Sète that has a sign that makes no sense to me - here it is, circled in blue...

Notice that every street is one-way (marked in red). So, what driver is going to see the "do not enter" sign? 
I have to assume it's left over from a time when one of these roads contained a different direction...

Hi Julie, it is always like that is France. It is to make sure that people coming from the right of this street (post office street) You will see that at most of the intersections with a one way street.

Hello! Yes, I understand the concept; this is just different! This sign is a good 3 meters from the post office street, so there's no way a driver at that corner will see it. And there's another one-way sign where (in my opinion) it should be. I suppose it could be there simply to follow the letter of the law...
