Origin and history

General Hoche's home, located at 18 rue de Satory in Versailles, is a historical monument whose protection is specific to the façade and the corresponding roof. These elements were inscribed by ministerial decree on 15 September 1954, emphasizing their heritage value in the Veraillais architectural context.

Versailles, the emblematic city of the Île-de-France region, is marked by a rich historical past, particularly linked to the monarchy and urban planning of the eighteenth century. The houses of this time, like General Hoche's, often reflect the social and military evolution of France, although little precise information is available on his occupation or exact role before his protection.

The 1954 classification is part of a broader approach to preserving the French heritage after the war, aimed at safeguarding the physical traces of historical figures, even when their individual history remains partially documented. The location of this monument, in a neighborhood like Satory, can evoke a connection with the military history of the city, without the source text specifying any more.
