Origin and history

The building located Place des Héros in Arras is a historical monument whose protection is specifically on the facade. Ranked by ministerial decree on 1 September 1919, it illustrates the attention paid to the architectural heritage after the First World War, during which time the region suffered extensive destruction. Its central location, in a city marked by medieval history and modern conflicts, makes it a representative element of the urban fabric of the Arrage.

The location of this building, at the exact address of 32 Place des Héros, corresponds to a historical area of Arras, capital city of Pas-de-Calais. Although the available sources do not detail its original use or stylistic features, its early ranking suggests a recognized heritage value from the early twentieth century. The Hauts-de-France region, formerly Nord-Pas-de-Calais, concentrates a rich heritage linked to its industrial, commercial and military past, of which this building is a modest but significant representative.
