Origin and history

The building at the 33rd of the Grande-Place in Arras is a historic monument whose protection concerns the facade. Classified by ministerial decree of 23 February 1921, this facade illustrates a preserved architectural heritage in the heart of the city. The building now belongs to a private company, without its current use (visit, rental, accommodation) being clearly documented in available sources.

Arras, capital of Pas-de-Calais in the Hauts-de-France, has had an urban history marked by its commercial and strategic role since the Middle Ages. The buildings of the Great Place, often rebuilt after the conflicts (especially World War I), reflect this dynamic between medieval heritage and modernity. This type of building traditionally took part in the economic and social life of the city, sheltering shops, houses or local institutions.

However, there is no specific information to date its construction or to identify its first occupants.
