Origin and history

The 15th century House, located in Bourdeaux in the Drôme, is an emblematic monument of medieval civil architecture in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Built in the 15th century, it bears witness to the built heritage of this period, marked by traditional construction techniques and an urban organization still visible in some old quarters.

Classified as a Historical Monument by order of 21 October 1926, this house is distinguished in particular by its facade, the only part protected to date. This type of building reflects the way of life of Bourdeaux residents at the end of the Middle Ages, when stone or half-timbered houses served as both a dwelling, a workshop or a place of commerce. Their preservation makes it possible to understand the urban and social evolution of the region.

The location of the house, mentioned both rue du Vieux-Bourdeaux and close to the climb of the Viale, suggests an establishment in a historical area of the commune. Available data indicate a "passible" location accuracy (note 5/10), which may reflect uncertainties about its exact location or subsequent urban changes.

Practical information on access (visit, rental, accommodation) is not specified in the sources consulted. Only the protection of its facade is formally attested, emphasizing its heritage interest without yet detailing its current or past use.

The available sources, including Monumentum and Merimée data, confirm its status as a Historical Monument and its inscription in the architectural landscape of the Drôme. No mention is made of historical characters related to this building, nor of any significant events being held.

Finally, the Creative Commons license associated with a photograph of the monument (credit: Fernand.sprimont) attests to its documentary interest and its appreciation by external contributors. This strengthens its anchoring in the local heritage, while stressing the need for more accurate data for in-depth study.
