Origin and history

The building at 17 Place Bellecour in Lyon is a historical monument whose major architectural elements – façade and roof – were entered in the inventory by ministerial decree of 7 March 1941. This building, now owned by the commune of Lyon, is distinguished by its central location in an emblematic district of the city, between the 1st and 2nd arrondissements. Its official address, recorded in the Merimée base, reflects its anchoring in Lyon's urban history, although GPS coordinates suggest an approximation in the immediate vicinity (12 Place Bellecour).

The 1941 protection emphasizes the heritage value of this building, but the available sources do not specify its original use or its architect. The current data from Monumentum and the Merimée archives are limited to its legal status and location, without details of its social history or past occupants. The Creative Commons license associated with his photograph indicates a desire to publicize his image as part of the promotion of Lyon's heritage.
