Origin and history
The residence in Salins-les-Bains is a historic monument of the 2nd quarter of the 19th century, rebuilt after a fire in 1825. This building adopts a neo-classical architectural style, typical of the period, and reflects the artistic and social influences of the post-revolutionary period in France. Its sober and balanced architecture illustrates the ideals of clarity and symmetry advocated by this movement.
The home's garden was established in 1838, adding a landscape dimension to the site. This type of garden, often inspired by English models, aimed to create a harmonious and aesthetic space, in accordance with the tastes of the rising bourgeoisie of the time. The house and its garden, including its fence walls, were listed as a historical monument by order of 20 April 1994.
Salins-les-Bains, located in the Jura department, was at that time a city marked by its thermal activity and salt production. The bourgeois homes, like this one, bear witness to the local prosperity and urban development associated with these economic activities. These residences were often used as a resort for regional elites or as a living environment for local notables.
