Facades and roofs (cad. AB 70): classification by decree of 19 September 1938
Origin and history
The Hôtel Duguesclin is a historic monument located at Mont-Saint-Michel in Normandy. This building, whose facades and roofs have been protected by a decree of classification since 19 September 1938, is part of the unique architectural landscape of this emblematic commune. Although its exact construction period is not specified in the available sources, its status as a Historic Monument underscores its heritage importance and its integration into local history.
Mont-Saint-Michel, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a major medieval site marked by its abbey and fortified village. Buildings such as Hotel Duguesclin, although less documented than the abbey, contribute to the historic richness of the site. Their preservation reflects the conservation effort of a coherent architectural ensemble, where each building helps to tell the evolution of the site over the centuries.
The protection of the facades and roofs of the Hôtel Duguesclin in 1938 demonstrates the desire to safeguard representative elements of Norman history, even when their specific history remains partially unknown.
