Origin and history

The Hotel de Courcival is an emblematic 16th century building located in the city of Le Mans, Sarthe, in the heart of the Pays de la Loire. This monument is distinguished by its Renaissance architecture, with a monumental street door and carefully designed facades, reflecting the prestige of its former owners or occupants.

The monumental gate, including its vantals, was listed as historic monuments on January 16, 1926, recognizing its early heritage value. Later, in 1945, the facades on street and courtyard, as well as the roofs, also benefited from this protection by a decree of 13 March. These preservation measures underline the historic and architectural importance of the hotel in the local heritage.

Located at 3 rue du Petit-Saint-Pierre, the Hotel de Courcival is located in a historical area of Le Mans, marked by medieval and reborn urbanization. Its state of conservation and its protected elements bear witness to the architectural and social evolution of the city throughout the centuries. The precise location, confirmed by the Merimée and Monumentum bases, strengthens its anchoring in the Mansais urban fabric.
