Origin and history

The building located on 2 rue de la Paix in Nantes, at the corner of the Tremperie driveway, dates from the 3rd quarter of the 18th century. This building illustrates the Haitian civil architecture of this period, marked by a sober and elegant style. Its location, close to the Place du Bouffay, the historic heart of the city, reflects the growing urbanization of Nantes in the Enlightenment century, then dynamic port linked to Atlantic trade.

The building was registered as historical monuments by order of 2 July 1951. This protection specifically concerns its facade on the square, highlighting its heritage interest. The decision is part of a post-Second World War will to preserve the old building, in a context where Nantes reconstructs and modernizes its city centre. No information is available on any owners or architects.

Sources available (Wikipedia, Monumentum) mention a precise location: 2 rue de la Paix and Place du Bouffay, in the Loire-Atlantique department ( Pays de la Loire region). The approximate GPS address, 3 aisle of the Tremperie, confirms its anchoring in the medieval and commercial district of the city. No data indicate a specific openness to the public or current vocation.
