Origin and history

The house at 14 rue de Paris in Compiègne is a 16th century building, typical of the civil architecture of this period. Its facades and roofs, both on the courtyard and on the street, were inscribed under the title of Historical Monuments by order of 17 February 1950, highlighting their heritage value. The precise location of this monument, although documented in the Merimée base, remains approximate according to modern criteria, with an accuracy assessed as fair (note of 5/10).

In the 16th century, Compiègne, then integrated into the historical region of Picardie, was a dynamic city linked to trade and proximity to Paris. The houses of that time often reflected the prosperity of local merchants or artisans, serving as both a place of residence and a place of professional activity. This type of building, with its preserved architectural elements, bears witness to the urban lifestyle and construction techniques of the Renaissance in France.

Available sources, including the Monumentum platform and the internal data of the Merimée database, confirm the importance of this monument in the local heritage. No additional information is provided on its current use (visit, rental, etc.), or on any historic owners or sponsors. The exact address, although mentioned as 14 rue de Paris, is supplemented by a GPS approximation indicating the 16 Bis of the same street, reflecting the uncertainties associated with the old map records.
