Origin and history

The houses located at numbers 10 and 12 of Rue Saint-Georges, in the 5th arrondissement of Lyon, constitute a historic monument whose protection relates specifically to the decorated ceiling and door. These architectural elements were inscribed by ministerial decree on 22 July 1986, highlighting their heritage value. The building is now owned by a private company, which limits its accessibility to the public.

The location of the monument, although documented in the Merimée base under the address of the 1st arrondissement (69001), is actually located in the 5th arrondissement (69005), as confirmed by GPS coordinates. This administrative disparity sometimes reflects territorial adjustments or input errors in heritage databases. The accuracy of the location is estimated as fair (note 5/10), indicating a geolocalized uncertainty margin.

No detailed historical information is available on the origin of these houses, their builders, or their initial use. The data are limited to their current status as a protected monument and their location in the Saint-Georges district, an emblematic area of Lyon marked by its medieval and reborn heritage. Their inscription in the title of the Historical Monuments, however, bears witness to their artistic or historical interest, without the sources further specifying their context of creation.
