Origin and history

The Ruivet House is an emblematic 15th century building located in the medieval village of Peruges, in the department of Ain. This building, typical of the civil architecture of the time, illustrates the preserved historical heritage of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Its classification as a historical monument in 1921 reflects its cultural and architectural importance.

The village of Peruges, with its stone houses and paved alleys, reflects daily life in the Middle Ages. At that time, houses such as the Ruivet House served as both housing and work space for local artisans or traders. Their preservation makes it possible today to understand the social and economic organization of medieval villages.

According to available sources, Ruivet House was protected for its street façade, classified by ministerial decree in 1921. It now belongs to an association, which suggests a desire to conserve and enhance the local heritage. Data from the Merimée database specify its exact address, confirming its anchoring in the historical urban fabric of Peruges.
