Origin and history

This house, located at 18 rue de l'Armillerie in Romans-sur-Isère, is an emblematic building of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It is distinguished by its street and courtyard facades, including loggias, as well as its corresponding roofs. These architectural elements led to its inscription as a Historical Monument by decree of 26 December 1980, stressing its heritage importance.

Romans-sur-Isère, located in the Drôme department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, was at that time a city marked by artisanal and commercial activities. The houses of this period often reflected the prosperity of the owners, usually merchants or local notables. This type of building, with its loggias, could serve as both a dwelling and a place of exchange, illustrating the central role of architecture in the social and economic life of the city.
