Origin and history

The house in Tullins, in the department of Isère (38), is a 17th century civil monument. It is distinguished by its entrance door, the only protected element registered under the Historical Monuments by order of 31 December 1963. This architectural detail reflects the construction techniques and styles of the time, although other building features are not documented in available sources.

The building is located Place du Docteur-Valois, in the heart of Tullins, a commune attached to the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region (formerly Rhône-Alpes). The accuracy of its geographic location is assessed as poor (note 5/10), suggesting uncertainties about its exact location or boundaries. No information is provided on its current use, whether it is a public visit, a rental, or any other function.

The 17th century in Isère corresponds to a period of reconstruction and urban expansion after the unrest of the Wars of Religion. Bourgeois or notable houses, such as this one, often played a central role in local life, serving as a residence for wealthy families or influential professionals (traders, officers, or clergy). Their architecture, even partially preserved, offers an overview of the lifestyles and social hierarchies of the time.
