Timeline

Heritage classified

Origin and history

The building at 16 rue de la Taillerie in Arras is a historical monument whose protection was formalized by a classification order. This classification, which took place on September 1, 1919, specifically concerns its facade, highlighting its architectural or heritage interest in the post-First World War context. The precise location of the building, confirmed by the Merimée data and GPS coordinates, places it in the department of Pas-de-Calais, in the Hauts-de-France region.

Arras, a city marked by its medieval history and strategic role, suffered extensive destruction during the First World War. Buildings classified as this often illustrate efforts to rebuild and preserve local heritage after the conflict. Although available sources do not detail its original use or its architect, its early protection (as early as 1919) suggests a rapidly recognized symbolic or aesthetic value.

Monuments of this type participated in urban life, sometimes hosting commercial, artisanal or residential activities, reflecting the social and economic organization of the region.
