Origin and history

The building at 63 Beauvoisine Street in Rouen is a civil building built between the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This building illustrates the urban architecture of this pivotal period, marked by stylistic transitions between classicism and pre-industrial influences. Its inscription in the inventory of Historic Monuments by decree of 5 March 1962 specifically concerns its facade on street and roof, which are considered representative of the local heritage.

The location of this building in the centre of Rouen reflects the importance of this city as an economic and cultural hub in Normandy. At that time Rouen was a major commercial hub, thanks to its river port and its textile activities. The buildings of this period often served as houses for merchants or artisans, while sometimes sheltering professional activities on the ground floor. Their preservation makes it possible today to understand the urban and social evolution of the city.

The available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum indicate that the exact address (63 Beauvoisine Street) corresponds to the parcel cadastre Nos. 8 893 and 892. The accuracy of its geographical location is estimated to be "a priori satisfactory", with a score of 6 out of 10. No additional information is provided on its current use (visit, rental, etc.), or on any owners or architects associated with its construction.
