Origin and history

The building at 20 Samaritaine Street in Bourg-en-Bresse, in the department of Ain, dates from the 3rd quarter of the 18th century. This building is distinguished by its typical civil architecture of this period, with notable interior decorative elements, including a staircase and a wrought iron ramp. These elements, located on the inner courtyard, have been recognized for their heritage value and are subject to official protection.

The stairway and the wrought iron ramp of the building were listed as historical monuments by order of 13 March 1950. This protection highlights the artistic and historical importance of these elements, representative of the know-how of the artisans of the time. The building, although partially protected, illustrates the civil architectural heritage of Bourg-en-Bresse, a city marked by its history in the Bresse region.

The precise location of the building at 20 Samaritan Street is documented in heritage databases such as Mérimée. The Insee code of the commune, 01053, confirms its membership of the Ain, in the region Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Although the information on its current use (visit, rental, etc.) is not specified, its status as a historical monument makes it an important part of the local heritage.
