Origin and history

The house of Charles IX is a medieval building located in the heart of the village of Couleuvre, in the department of l'Allier. It is distinguished by its preserved structure, including coated facades with sill windows, a chevron frame forming firm, and a stair turret. Although the interior has been emptied of its old buildings, the building remains an architectural testimony of this period.

The house occupies a strategic location, at the crossroads of the four main streets of the village: rue Marx-Dormoy, rue Jean-Jaurès, rue Jules-Ferry and rue Émile-Guillaumin. Today, it houses the Porcelain Museum, offering a second life to this historical heritage. The building was listed as historic monuments by order of 7 October 1991, thereby recognizing its heritage value.

Available sources, including Wikipedia and Monumentum, highlight its local importance and remarkable conservation status. The house is owned by the commune of Couleuvre, and its exact address is 4 rue Jean Jaurès. Despite a GPS location deemed mediocre (precision 5/10), it remains a point of interest for those passionate about medieval history and architecture.
