Origin and history

The house located in Pont-à-Mousson, in the department of Meurthe-et-Moselle, is a historic monument whose protection specifically concerns the facade. This official inscription, dated December 11, 1925, highlights its architectural or heritage interest in the Grand Est region, formerly known as Lorraine. The building is located at 17 Place Duroc, although approximate GPS coordinates also suggest a nearby address at 1 rue Saint-Laurent.

Monuments of this type, often bourgeois houses or civilian buildings, reflect the lifestyles and urban evolutions of the 19th and 20th centuries in medium-sized cities. In Pont-à-Mousson, a city marked by its industrial history and its role in metallurgy, these buildings testify to the local prosperity and architectural influences of the period. Their preservation makes it possible to understand the social and economic organization of urban communities in Lorraine, between medieval heritage and modernization.
