Origin and history

The building at 6 rue de la Madeleine in Besançon is an iconic 18th century building. It is distinguished by its representative architecture of this period, with a facade on street and a roof protected by a registration order in 1937. This building illustrates the city's urban heritage, marked by classical influences and local craftsmanship.

Classified as a Historic Monument, this building now belongs to the municipality of Besançon. Although its precise location is estimated as "passable" (note of 5/10), it remains an architectural witness of the Franche-Comté under the Ancien Régime. Available sources, such as the Merimée and Monumentum base, confirm its heritage importance, without providing details on its original use or occupants.

The protection of 1937 specifically concerns the facade and roof, characteristic elements of bourgeois or artisanal buildings of the era. No information is available on any visits, room rental or current tourist vocation. The GPS coordinates and administrative address (4 rue de la Madeleine) complement the technical data, but its social or functional history remains largely unknown.
