Timeline

Heritage classified

Origin and history

The social buildings of INRAE (National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment) are located in Saint-Cyr-l'École, Yvelines, in the Île-de-France region. These buildings are integrated into the National Estate of the Palace of Versailles, an exceptional heritage complex managed by the State. Their precise location, although subject to approximations (notation of 5/10 for accuracy), is associated with the Route de Saint-Cyr or 2ter Rue du Clos de la Fontaine.

Classified under the title of Historic Monuments by Decree No. 2024-472 of 24 May 2024, these buildings enjoy full protection of their interior parts. This classification is part of a logic of preserving the heritage linked to the Domaine de Versailles, extending its scope of protection to contemporary structures with a social or scientific vocation. No information is available on their accessibility to the public, current use, or detailed history before 2024.

The Île-de-France region, and especially the Yvelines, has long been marked by a strong institutional and scientific presence, particularly around Versailles. Public or social buildings often play a dual role: supporting local activities (research, education, housing) while integrating into a historical landscape dominated by the castle and its dependencies. This type of heritage reflects changes in public policies on planning and preservation.
