Origin and history

The house located on 2 d'Armagnac Street in Rodez is a building representative of 15th and 16th century civil architecture. It probably belonged to wealthy bourgeois or local lords, as evidenced by its three floors and its typical openings of this period. The facade, decorated with typical bays, as well as the roof, was protected by an inscription to the Historical Monuments in 1950.

The interior houses a staircase in round tower, an architectural element notable for the period, which highlights the social status of its occupants. Although the sources do not specify its exact use, this type of residence reflected the prestige of the influential families of Rodez, a then dynamic city in southwestern France. The location, now assessed as poor in precision, places the building in the historic heart of the city.

The data available are mainly from the Merimée database and Monumentum, without any mention of public openings or current services. The exact address (2 or 2 bis rue d'Armagnac) and the Insee code (12202) confirm its anchoring in the department of Aveyron in the Occitan region.
