Origin and history

The house at 29 Rue Verte in Rouen is an emblematic monument to the architectural heritage of the late 19th century. Built during the 4th quarter of the 19th century, it illustrates the bourgeois residential style of this period, marked by particular attention to facade details and decorative elements.

Classified as a Historic Monument, this house is distinguished by its facade and roof on street, protected by a registration order dated 29 October 1975. This classification reflects the heritage value of the building, particularly for its architectural elements and its integration into the urban fabric of Rouen, a city rich in history and monuments.

Among the artisans who contributed to its creation, Ferdinand Marrou, a ironmaker, is mentioned as having played a role in the design or decoration of the building. This detail highlights the importance of art crafts in the architecture of the era, where wrought iron or metal elements brought a touch of elegance and sophistication to buildings.
