Origin and history

The house at 7 Place de la Victoire in Sélestat is a civil building dating from the first half of the eighteenth century. It is distinguished by its portal, from Zum Roesslin House, which motivated its registration as a historical monument in 1930. This building illustrates the Alsatian architectural heritage of this period, marked by Baroque and classical influences.

The inscription of this monument in 1930 reflects the heritage interest of remarkable architectural elements, even isolated, such as this portal. Séletat, an Alsatian city with a rich medieval and humanist past, preserves several traces of its history through bourgeois houses and public buildings. This type of house reflects urban life and the evolution of architectural styles in the region in the 18th century.

The available data also mention a precise location, confirmed by the sources Mérimée and Monumentum, with an official address in the 7 place de la Victoire. The building does not seem open to the visit, but its protection makes it a key part of the local heritage, alongside other historical monuments of Seletat and Lower Rhine.
