15th century portal: registration by decree of 2 February 1931
Origin and history
The house located at 3 rue Barbatte in Poitiers is a 15th century civil building. It is distinguished by its portal, the only element protected and listed in the inventory of Historic Monuments by order of 2 February 1931. This portal, typical of late Gothic architecture, illustrates the know-how of the artisans of the period in the Poitevin region.
The building is now owned by a private company. Although its current use (housing, renting, or otherwise) is not specified in the available sources, its portal remains a notable architectural testimony of the medieval period in Poitiers. The location of the house, in the historic centre of the city, suggests its integration into the medieval urban fabric, marked by narrow alleys and stone constructions.
The available data indicate a location accuracy deemed "a priori satisfactory" (note 6/10), with an address confirmed by the Merimée database. The house is associated with code Insee 86194, corresponding to the commune of Poitiers in the department of Vienna. No additional information is provided regarding its detailed history, past occupants, or possible architectural changes after the 15th century.
