Facade and roof: inscription by decree of 5 May 1931

Origin and history

The house located at 15 rue Napoléon on Île-d'Aix is a monument listed in the inventory of Historic Monuments. This building, whose facade and roof are protected by a decree of May 5, 1931, illustrates the typical architecture of this emblematic island of Charente-Maritime, in New Aquitaine. Its precise location, although localized with an accuracy considered fair (note 5/10), makes it a notable element of the built heritage of this island commune.

L'Île-d'Aix, administratively attached to the commune of Charente-Maritime under the code Insee 17004, is a territory marked by its maritime and strategic history. Traditional houses, like this one, often reflect the way of life of the inhabitants, linked to fishing, trade or port activities. This type of monument contributes to the local collective memory, testifying to the construction techniques and domestic uses specific to a time when the island played a role in regional exchanges.

No additional information is available on its specific history, occupants or original use.
