Origin and history

Hôtel de la Croix-Blanche is a building located in the city of Avignon, in the heart of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. This monument, whose precise address is 26 Rue Carreterie, is distinguished by its entrance façade, protected by an inscription order under the title of Historic Monuments since 4 October 1932. No other detailed architectural or historical information is available in current sources.

Avignon, the emblematic city of southern France, has had a rich history, notably marked by the presence of popes in the Middle Ages. Private hotels, such as the White Cross, often reflect the prestige and social organization of the local bourgeoisie throughout the centuries. These buildings served as urban residences for wealthy families, while sometimes playing a role in the economic or political life of the city.

Their preservation is now a testimony to the architectural and cultural heritage of the region.
