Origin and history

The Hôtel de Chanciergues is a historical monument located in the city of Avignon, in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Although its exact construction period is not specified in the available sources, its architecture and designation as Historic Monuments in 1949 demonstrate its heritage importance. The building is located at 25 rue Petite-Fusterie and rue Saint-Étienne, in an iconic downtown area.

The protected elements of this mansion include its facades and blankets, which were inscribed by ministerial decree on 23 November 1949. This protection reflects the architectural and historical value of the building, typical of urban hotels in the region. The approximate location, confirmed by GPS coordinates, places the building near Rue Saint-Étienne, a central axis of Avignon.

In the absence of precise historical details of its origin or its occupants, the Hotel de Chanciergues is part of the landscape of the Avignon private hotels, often linked to the ecclesiastical or aristocratic history of the city of popes. These buildings generally served as residences for local elites or religious dignitaries, playing a social and political role in the city. Their preservation makes it possible today to understand the urban and architectural evolution of Avignon throughout the centuries.
