Façades on the quay, on the street and on the courtyard and roofs: inscription by decree of 27 October 1953

Origin and history

The Houses located in Rouen, on the Quai du Havre, constitute a historical monument whose facades and roofs were inscribed by ministerial decree in 1953. Their precise location, between the street and the courtyard, reflects a typical city centre architecture, although their exact construction period is not mentioned in the available sources. These buildings, now protected, bear witness to the urban evolution of Rouen, the major city of Normandy.

The official address lists numbers 56 and 58 wharf of Le Havre, as well as old names such as Rue d'Harcourt, highlighting toponymic changes over time. The accuracy of their geographical location is considered "passable" (note 5/10), and their current condition – open or closed to the visit – is not documented. Their protection in 1953, however, marked their heritage importance in a neighbourhood marked by the river and commercial history of Rouen.
