Timeline

Origin and history

The building located in the 1 Place de la Bouquerie in Sarlat-la-Canéda is a 14th century building, typical of the medieval civil architecture of the region. Its inscription in the inventory of Historic Monuments by decree of 25 February 1944 specifically concerns its facade on courtyard and roof, remarkable elements of this local heritage. The exact location, although documented in the Merimée database, remains approximated according to available sources, with an accuracy considered "passible" (note 5/10).

Sarlat-la-Canéda, the emblematic town of the Black Perigord in the Dordogne, was a dynamic economic and religious centre in the Middle Ages. The buildings of this period, such as that of the Place de la Bouquerie, reflect the increasing urbanization and the role of the towns in trade and crafts. Their preservation makes it possible today to understand the social and architectural organization of medieval cities in New Aquitaine.

Available data from Monumentum and the Merimée archives highlight the heritage importance of this building, although little detailed information about its history or occupants is available. The Creative Commons license associated with his photo suggests a documentary and tourist interest in this type of monument, often integrated with the city's tour routes.
