Origin and history

Thibault House is a medieval house located in the village of Peruges, in the department of Ain. Built in the 15th century, it is a typical example of the civil architecture of this period in the region. Its designation as a historic monument in 1929 bears witness to its heritage value, particularly for its preserved facades and roofs.

The village of Peruges, integrated into the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, was in medieval times a place of life animated by artisanal and commercial activities. Houses such as those of the Thibaults served both as a dwelling and sometimes as a place of work for local families, reflecting the social and economic organization of the time.

The building has been protected since 1929 by a decree that specifically concerns its facades and roofs, as indicated in the Mérimée base. This protection aims to preserve the architectural elements characteristic of the fifteenth century, offering a material testimony of this period.

No information is available about the original owners or specific uses of the house beyond its residential role. The sources mention only its inscription and location, without details of its social history or subsequent transformations.

Thibault House is part of a larger set of historical monuments in Peruges, a village known for its well-preserved medieval heritage. Its approximate address, 5188 Rue des Rondes, allows to situate it in the old urban fabric of the commune.

The available data do not specify whether the monument is open to the public or whether it houses specific activities today, such as visits, rentals or guest rooms. Only its architectural and historical importance is documented.
