Facade and roofing on street (cad. AC 250): inscription by decree of 20 March 1986

Origin and history

The house at 136 rue de Dunkirk in Saint-Omer is a building dating from the 1st quarter of the 17th century. It is representative of the civil architecture of this period in the Hauts-de-France region, now classified as a Historical Monument. Its inscription in the inventory of Historic Monuments, by decree of 20 March 1986, specifically concerns its facade and roof on street, remarkable elements of its built heritage.

Saint-Omer, a town in the Pas-de-Calais department, was at that time a dynamic urban centre, marked by economic activity linked to trade and crafts. The houses of this period often reflect the relative ease of their owners, bourgeois or merchants, and their integration into the urban fabric. This type of building, with its architectural characteristics, bears witness to the lifestyles and social aspirations of the modern era in French Flanders.
