Origin and history

The building at 6 rue des Balayeurs and 6 Place Saint-Nicolas-aux-Ondes in Strasbourg is an iconic 18th-century civil building. Built in a style representative of the Strasbourg architecture of the time, it illustrates the urban and residential development of the city under the Old Regime. Its registration in the historic monuments inventory in 1978 is a testament to its heritage value, especially for its street facades and roof, protected by ministerial decree.

The location of the building, at the junction of Rue des Balayeurs and Place Saint-Nicolas-aux-Ondes, reveals its integration into a historical area marked by artisanal and commercial activities. In Strasbourg, in the 18th century, such buildings often housed bourgeois families or corporations, playing a central role in local social and economic life. Their preservation makes it possible today to understand the evolution of lifestyles and construction techniques in Alsace.

Available sources, including Wikipedia and Monumentum, confirm its status as a historical monument and specify the protected elements: facades and roofs, listed as historical monuments since 9 May 1978. No additional information is provided on any owners, architects or significant events related to the building, limiting the knowledge of its history to its architectural and regulatory framework.
