Timeline

Origin and history

The building at 54 rue Saint-Pierre in Caen is a building whose origins date back to the 14th and 15th centuries. It is distinguished by its medieval architecture, typical of the urban constructions of this period in Normandy. Although the details of its initial use remain unclear, its façade and roof were protected by a classification as Historic Monuments in 1947, highlighting their heritage value.

The 1947 classification specifically concerns the facade and roof of the building, reflecting the importance attached to preserving its exterior appearance. Today, the building belongs to a private company, and its access to the public (visits, rentals, accommodation) is not specified in the available sources. Its location in the historic centre of Caen, a city marked by its medieval past and its destruction during the Second World War, makes it an important part of the local heritage.

The information available comes mainly from the Merimée base and the Monumentum platform. They indicate an accuracy of location deemed "passable" (note of 5/10), without further details on the interior arrangements or possible transformations that the building has undergone over the centuries. Associated photographs, such as Karldupart's Creative Commons license, help document its current state.
