Origin and history

The building of Saint-Malo, built in the early seventeenth century, bears witness to the civil architecture of the period after the destruction of Château Gaillard. Its three floors and ground floor, with bays decorated with original carpentry, reflect the constructive techniques of the time. The building illustrates urban reconstruction after the conflicts that marked the end of the 16th century, although its precise history remains partially documented.

Ranked Historic Monument by order of 4 November 1955, the building is protected for its courtyard facades and corresponding roofs. This official recognition underscores the heritage value of its architectural elements, including the carpentry of the early seventeenth century, still preserved. The address recorded in the Mérimée base (6 courtyard La-Houssaye) differs slightly from that obtained from GPS coordinates (6 Rue Mahé de la Bourdonnais), perhaps reflecting urban evolutions or SEO errors.

The location of the building, noted as "passable" (level 5/10) in available sources, suggests minor geographical uncertainty. No information is provided on its current use (visit, rental, accommodation), or on any historic owners or occupants. The data come mainly from the Monumentum database and the internal archives, without any mention of other complementary sources.
