House of the 15th and 16th centuries: inscription by decree of 19 March 1927
Origin and history
The House of the 15th and 16th centuries is a monument located in the city of Tulle, in Corrèze, in the region of New Aquitaine. This building, built between the 15th and 16th centuries, illustrates the civil architecture of this period. It has been listed in the Historical Monuments Inventory since 1927, reflecting its heritage importance and preservation.
The location of this house is specified in the Mérimée base at the following address: 5 rue Tour-de-Maisse (or rue de la Beylie), in the city centre of Tulle. The available GPS coordinates allow an approximate location, although the accuracy is considered poor (note 5/10). This type of house, typical of medieval and reborn urban centres, reflects the lifestyles and construction techniques of the period.
The houses of the 15th and 16th centuries, like this one, often served as houses for bourgeois families or artisans. In Tulle, a city marked by its medieval history and administrative role, these buildings were involved in structuring the urban space. Their preservation makes it possible today to study the architectural and social evolution of the region, especially in the context of the historic Limousin, which is now part of New Aquitaine.
