Facade and cover: registration by decree of 23 January 1945

Origin and history

The building at 3 rue Jeanne-d The aim of this regulation, aimed at standardizing the heights of the cornices and floors, was to harmonize the appearance of the street and highlight the neighbouring cathedral. Each facade, although stylistically distinct, respects a common scale, creating a remarkable visual unit.

The protection of this building, by order of 23 January 1945, specifically concerns its façade and its cover. This heritage recognition is part of a post-Second World War context where the preservation of coherent urban complexes becomes a priority. Jeanne-d-Arc Street, with its route and orderly architecture, illustrates a municipal desire for aesthetic and functional planning to serve the urban landscape.

The available data do not specify the exact date of construction of the building, but its integration into a homogeneous architectural complex suggests a coordinated realization, probably during the nineteenth century. The absence of references to specific sponsors or architects in the sources limits the knowledge of its individual history, although its role in urban composition remains documented.
