Origin and history

The house at 17 rue Napoléon on Aix Island is a monument listed in the inventory of Historic Monuments. Its inscription, dated 5 May 1931, specifically concerns its facade and roof, architectural elements considered remarkable. The building is located in an island setting marked by a military and strategic history, especially linked to Napoleon I, whose name is associated with the street where it is located.

The Île-d'Aix, a commune of Charente-Maritime in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, is a territory full of history, often associated with periods of conflict and coastal defence. Old houses, like this one, reflect the local lifestyle and the adaptation of buildings to island constraints. Their preservation makes it possible to understand the urban and architectural evolution of this island, today tourist but once strategic.

The precise location of this house, although noted as approximate (level 5/10), remains a point of interest for visitors and historians.
