Origin and history

The house located at 48 rue d'Amiens in Arras is a 17th century building, typical of the civil architecture of this period. It is distinguished by its street façade, which was inscribed as a Historical Monument by ministerial decree on 19 November 1946. This ranking reflects its heritage interest and historical value to the city of Arras.

Arras, located in the department of Pas-de-Calais ( Hauts-de-France region), was in the seventeenth century a dynamic city marked by its strategic and commercial role. The bourgeois houses of that time often reflected the prosperity of local merchants and artisans. This type of building, with its built façades, helped shape the architectural identity of the city, while sheltering domestic or professional activities essential to urban life.

The location of this house, specified as "a priori satisfactory" (note 6/10), corresponds to the official address recorded in the Merimée database. No additional information is available on its current use (visit, rental, etc.), but its registration as a Historical Monument makes it a notable part of the Arrage heritage. Available sources, such as Monumentum, confirm its protected status and historical value.
