Origin and history

The house located in Provins, Île-de-France, is a historical monument whose construction spans two major periods: the 12th and 14th centuries. It illustrates medieval civil architecture typical of this region, marked by both Romanesque and Gothic influences. Its facades and roofs, as well as its vaulted cellar, were protected by a registration order in 1962, highlighting their heritage value.

Located in 9 Place du Châtel, this house is part of the urban fabric of Provins, a city known for its rich medieval past. At that time, bourgeois or artisanal houses played a central role in economic and social life, often hosting commercial activities on the ground floor and housing on the first floor. Their preservation makes it possible today to understand the spatial organization and lifestyles of the inhabitants of Ile-de-France in the Middle Ages.

Available data from sources such as Monumentum indicate that the location of this monument is estimated to be "passible" (note 5/10), which may indicate minor uncertainties about its exact location. No additional information is provided on its current use, whether it be visits, rentals or accommodation.
