Origin and history
The Hotel de Coursac, located in Romans-sur-Isère in the Drôme, is an emblematic building of the 16th and 18th centuries. This monument illustrates the civil architecture of these periods, with characteristic structural and decorative elements. Its facades and roofs, inscribed in the Historical Monuments by order of 21 September 1981, testify to its heritage importance and preservation.
The location of the Hôtel de Coursac, at 24 Place Maurice-Faure, is documented in the Merimée base, although geographical accuracy is considered poor (note of 5/10). This type of building, typical of urban private hotels, reflects the social status of its owners and the evolution of lifestyles in the region. Romans-sur-Isère, a dynamic city of the Drôme, was then marked by artisanal and commercial activities, context in which this monument is inscribed.
Available sources, including Monumentum, confirm its status as a Historic Monument, but do not provide details of its current use (visit, rental, accommodation). The lack of information about its historic owners or sponsors limits the understanding of its specific role in local society. Only protected architectural elements, such as facades and roofs, are clearly identified as heritage.
