Origin and history
The building in Arpajon-sur-Cère, in the Cantal, is a civil building dating from the 3rd quarter of the 18th century. It is distinguished by its typical architecture of this period, with facades and roofs protected by a registration order in 1977. This building embodies the bourgeois or notable residential heritage of the Auvergne region in the modern era, reflecting the architectural and social evolutions of the Ancien Régime.
The house is best known as the birthplace of General Milhaud, a major figure of the Napoleonic Empire. This historical link gives it a special heritage value, combining local memory and national history. The precise address, 1 avenue du Général-Milhaud, and its location in the centre of Arpajon-sur-Cère make it a visible and accessible landmark, although information on its current vocation (visit, accommodation) remains unspecified in the available sources.
The location data, assessed as "a priori satisfactory" (level 7/10), clearly identify the monument in the urban fabric. Its designation as Historic Monuments in 1977 underlines its heritage importance, while limiting protection to exterior elements (facades and roofs). No information is provided on any interior developments or a current tourist destination.
