Origin and history

The building located in the 13th Place de la Libération (formerly Dijon Armes Square) in Dijon is an emblematic 17th century building. It is distinguished by its characteristic architecture of this period, with a facade and roof protected by the Historical Monuments. The roof was inscribed by decree of November 21, 1925, while the façade was classified on July 6, 1937, highlighting its heritage importance.

The location of the building, on a central square in Dijon, reflects its role in town planning. In modern times, public squares such as this were used as a gathering place, a market place or a military parade, and the surrounding buildings, often of high quality, testify to the prosperity of Burgundy under the Old Regime. The classified facades, typical of the architectural style of the 17th century, illustrate the evolution of construction techniques and aesthetic tastes of the era.

The building now belongs to the Côte-d'Or department, suggesting public management of this heritage. Although the sources do not specify its current use (visit, rental, accommodation), its status as a Historic Monument guarantees its preservation. Available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum confirm its exact address and Insee code (21231), strengthening its anchoring in the historical Dijon fabric.
