Origin and history

The Maison du Prévost and Aux Inscriptions, located in the hamlet of Perreux in Treigny-Perreuse-Sainte-Colombe, is an architectural complex classified as a Historic Monument. The oldest part, known as the Prévost House, dates from the second half of the 15th century and has a Gothic style. This building reflects late medieval civil architecture, typical of houses of notables or seigneurial officers of that time.

The House of Inscriptions, for its part, was assembled at the House of Prevost by communes added at the end of the seventeenth century or at the beginning of the eighteenth century. These two houses, although built in near times, illustrate distinct styles: Gothic for the first, and a transition to Renaissance influences for the second. Their subsequent meeting attests to a desire for architectural unification, perhaps linked to a change of ownership or usage.

The protected complex also includes a winery, a large building adjacent to the west, as well as outbuildings like a stable and commons. These elements, inscribed by order of 4 March 2015, underline the heritage importance of the site. The location, noted as "passable" (5/10), suggests an approximate knowledge of its exact location, centered around the Rue Traversière in the hamlet of Perreuse.

The name "House of Inscriptions" suggests the presence of epigraphic elements (inscriptions) on its facades or insides, although the source text does not specify their nature or content. These entries could provide clues about former occupants or building functions, but no detailed information is available in the data provided.

Treigny-Perreuse-Sainte-Colombe, located in Yonne (Department 89), is part of the Burgundy-Franche-Comté region, an area rich in medieval and Renaissance heritage. At that time, such houses were often linked to the seigneurial or ecclesiastical administration, serving as residences for officers such as provosts, bailiffs or nailers, responsible for local or judicial management.

Registration for the Historical Monuments in 2015 helped preserve this ensemble, reflecting the architectural and social evolution of the region between the Middle Ages and the modern era. Protection covers not only the main buildings, but also their immediate environment, ensuring the preservation of their historical context.
