Origin and history

The house at 10 Royal Street in Orléans is a monument listed in the inventory of Historic Monuments. Its inscription, dated 12 July 1928, specifically concerns its facade and roof, architectural elements considered representative of the local heritage. Although the details of its precise history are limited, this official protection underscores its importance in the Orléan urban landscape.

Orléans, a city marked by a rich medieval and reborn history, experienced at the beginning of the twentieth century a period of valuing its built heritage. Bourgeois houses, like the one on Rue Royale, often reflect the evolution of architectural styles and the adaptation of urban spaces to the needs of the affluent classes. Their preservation makes it possible today to understand the lifestyles and aesthetic aspirations of the time, in a region where trade and crafts played a central role.
