Origin and history
The house of 10 quai Sainte-Catherine, located in Honfleur, Calvados, is an emblematic building dating from the 16th century. This monument is distinguished by its typical Renaissance architecture, with a facade and roof inscribed in the Historic Monuments since 1933. Its location on the Sainte-Catherine wharf, formerly numbered 91, makes it a witness to the city's port and urban history.
The protection of the house in 1933 underscores its heritage importance, particularly for its exterior architectural elements. Although the sources do not specify its original use, this type of building reflects Honfleur's economic and social development in the Renaissance, a period marked by maritime trade and the rise of Norman port cities.
The available references, from Wikipedia and Monumentum, confirm its status as a Historical Monument and its precise location, while mentioning minor inconsistencies in the address (10 quai Sainte-Catherine vs 8 quai Sainte-Catherine according to the sources). No information is provided on any owners, architects or significant events related to this place.
