Origin and history

The house located in the 74 course of the Intendance in Bordeaux is a monument listed in the inventory of Historic Monuments since November 15, 1927. Only its façade and roof, referred to under the KN 0004 cadastre, enjoy this official protection. This ranking shows its architectural interest in the Bordeaux urban landscape, although details of its history or its historical occupants remain absent from available sources.

Bordeaux, the major port town of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region (formerly Aquitaine), experienced a notable architectural boom between the 18th and 19th centuries, during which many bourgeois residences were built. The houses of this time often reflect the social prestige of their owners, linked to the commercial or wine-growing activities of the region. This type of building, by its central location on the course of the Intendance, fits into this urban context marked by the beautification of the city and the affirmation of its economic status.
