Origin and history
The Hotel de Chanlas is a historic monument located at 1 Franciscan Street in Séletat, Lower Rhine. Built mainly in the 18th century, it is distinguished by its body of houses made of stoneware and bricks, its arched peristyle in a cradle, and its wings made of wood. The interior decor, including studded ceilings, panelling and fireplaces, probably dates back to the years 1720-1730, when the Bourste family, owner of the premises since 1663, undertook a major reconstruction.
The first mention of a construction on this site dates back to 1383, but it was in the middle of the seventeenth century that the house took the name Chanlas, when it belonged to François Anne de Bazin, Baron of Chanlas. In 1663 it was transferred to Georges Bourste, baili de Châtenois, whose family occupied it until the 1760s. South wing, as well as outbuildings such as barn and stables, were added in the late 18th or 19th century.
Ranked as historic monuments in 1983, Chanlas Hotel protects its peristyle entrance with its balustrade, facades and roofs, as well as its first floor lounges and original décor. The sandstone staircase, the ground floor vaults and the broken roofs illustrate the Alsatian civil architecture of the Enlightenment, mixing local tradition and classical influences.
The building bears witness to the social evolution of Sélestat, a commercial and administrative city in Alsace. Its square plan, typical of the mansions of the time, reflects the easy status of its successive owners, linked to the nobility or the local bourgeoisie. Today, there remains an emblematic example of the Alsatian urban heritage, open to visit under conditions.
