Heritage classified

Origin and history

The building at 44 Grande-Place in Arras is a historic monument whose façade was classified by ministerial decree on 12 January 1920. This ranking reflects its architectural or heritage interest, although the precise details of its construction or initial history are not mentioned in the available sources. The building now belongs to a private company, which may limit its accessibility to the public, without specifying any possible opening to the visit, room rental or guest rooms.

The location of the building, on the Great Place of Arras, the emblematic square of the city, suggests an urban context marked by the commercial and administrative history of the region. Arras, capital of Pas-de-Calais, underwent a major reconstruction after the First World War, during which many historic buildings were preserved or restored. The classified facades, like that of this building, often illustrate civil architecture of the eighteenth or nineteenth centuries, characteristic of the city centres of northern France.

However, without a precise date of construction, it is difficult to attribute this monument to a specific period or architectural style.
