Origin and history

The building located at 1 rue Gouvion-Saint-Cyr in Toul (Meurthe-et-Moselle) is a historic monument whose protection specifically concerns its cochère door. This architectural element was registered by ministerial decree on 17 July 1939, demonstrating its heritage interest recognized by the authorities.

The location of this building, in the city centre of Toul, the former stronghold of Lorraine, is part of an urban fabric marked by centuries of military and civil history. Rue Gouvion-Saint-Cyr, where the building is located, bears the name of a Napoleonic general from the region, reflecting the local historic anchor. The geographical accuracy available (level 6/10) allows for a satisfactory identification of the site, although margins of error remain.

The information available does not specify the exact period of construction of the building, its architect or its initial use. Only the cochère door, a remarkable element, was considered worthy of protection under the Historical Monuments. This type of partial protection is common for buildings with particular architectural details, without the whole structure necessarily being exceptional.
