Timeline

Origin and history

The house at 56 rue Beauvoisine in Rouen is a building built during the first half of the 17th century. It is distinguished by its typical architecture of this period, with a facade on street and a roof side protected by a ministerial decree. This building illustrates the Rouen civil heritage of the modern era, marked by increasing urbanization and the emergence of bourgeois homes in the city centre.

Classified as a Historical Monument by order of 4 July 1959, this house is subject to partial protection, specifically covering its façade (including the vantals) and the corresponding part of its roof. This official recognition underlines its heritage interest, although its exact location was further clarified (notably via GPS coordinates indicating n°58). The building is located in an emblematic area of Rouen, reflecting the urban and architectural evolution of Normandy under the Old Regime.

Available sources, such as the Merimée base and the Monumentum platform, confirm its status and administrative location in the Seine-Maritime department (code Insee 76540). No information is provided on its current use (visit, rental, etc.), but its registration as a Historical Monument guarantees its preservation. The accuracy of its location is estimated as "a priori satisfactory" (note 6/10), based on geolocation data.
