Origin and history

The building located in Dijon, Burgundy-Franche-Comté, dates from the 16th century. This building, typical of Renaissance civil architecture, is distinguished by its street façade and roof, protected by a decree of inscription under the title of Historical Monuments since 24 June 1943. Its official address, 5 Place Ernest-Renan, the square in the heart of the historic center of Dijon, although geolocalized sources suggest a proximity to Place Notre-Dame.

The protection of this building is part of a desire to preserve the architectural heritage of Dijon, marked by a rich medieval and reborn history. At that time, Dijon, capital of the Dukes of Burgundy, was a major cultural and economic home. The buildings of this period often reflected the social status of their owners, combining residential and sometimes commercial functions.
