Origin and history

The house in Cremieu, in the Isère department (38), is a 13th-century building. It is distinguished by a protected architectural element: a window coming from Delphinal Castle, classified as Historic Monument by order of 8 September 1928. This element, integrated with the current structure, illustrates the re-use of noble materials in medieval civil constructions.

The exact address of this monument, according to the Merimée base, is Rue Faulchet (38460 Crémieu), although GPS coordinates suggest a close location at 3 rue Saint-Jean. The accuracy of this location is considered "passable" (note 5/10), reflecting uncertainties related to historical sources and urban developments. No information is available on its current use (visit, accommodation, etc.).

Crémieu, attached to the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, was in medieval times a dynamic village linked to trade and seigneurial presence. The houses of this period were often used as houses for local artisans, merchants or notables. Their conservation offers an overview of constructive techniques and urban lifestyles in the Middle Ages, in an area marked by the influence of the dolphin Counts.
