Origin and history

The house at 3 rue des Fabriques-Nabot in Perpignan is a 13th-century civil building, typical of the medieval architecture of the region. Its peculiarity lies in its exterior door in the middle of the hanger, decorated with a chamfered interior frame and a molded exterior frame resting on crows. One of the preserved crows presents a remarkable sculpture of two tangled monsters, one with lion's head and bat wings, the other with a bird.

According to historical tradition, this house would be the place of death of King Philip the Hardi in 1285, when he returned sick from a military campaign in Spain. The door to the street, with its carved decoration, was classified as Historic Monument by decree of 23 November 1964, highlighting its heritage value. Today, the building belongs to the Pyrénées-Orientales department.

The exact location of the house, although documented (official address: 3 rue des Fabriques-Nabot), has a geographical accuracy considered fair (note 5/10), with a slight discrepancy between the administrative address and GPS coordinates. No information is available on its current accessibility (visits, private or public use).
