Origin and history

This house, located at 45 rue du Commerce in Lons-le-Saunier, dates from the 4th quarter of the 17th and 18th centuries. It is representative of the civil architecture of this period in the region, although precise stylistic details are not mentioned in the available sources. Its façade was protected by a registration order for the Historic Monuments on December 2, 1926, highlighting its heritage interest.

Lons-le-Saunier, capital of the Jura department, was at that time a developing city, marked by commercial and craft activities. The bourgeois houses, like this one, often reflected the prosperity of the owners, linked to trade or local administration. This type of building played a central role in urban life, hosting both housing and sometimes economic activities on the ground floor.
