Origin and history

The Hotel Deschamps de Charmelieu, located 1 rue de l'Egalité in Auxerre (Yonne), is an architectural example of the 3rd quarter of the 18th and 19th centuries. Ranked as a Historic Monument by order of 27 June 1983, it is distinguished by its facades and roofs, its wrought iron ramp staircase, as well as by lounges and a dining room whose decoration is protected. The whole also includes two pavilions in the back of the garden and entrance gates, testifying to a neat bourgeois heritage.

The location of the hotel is specified with a high reliability (note 8/10) according to the Merimée base, which places it in the department of Yonne (89), in the Burgundy-Franche-Comté region. The Insee code of the municipality (89024) confirms its anchoring in Auxerre, a city marked by a rich historical and commercial past. No information is available on its current use (visits, rentals, guest rooms), but its ranking suggests a major heritage value.

The protected elements reflect the importance of this particular hotel in the urban landscape of Auxerre. The interior decorations (small living room, large living room, dining room) and the exterior elements (grills, pavilions) illustrate the luxury and know-how of the artisans of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
