The vantals of the door: inscription by decree of 4 December 1945

Origin and history

The building located at 46 rue de Famars in Valenciennes is a monument whose remarkable element resides in its door vantals, protected by a registration order under the Historical Monuments on 4 December 1945. This partial classification reflects the heritage value of this architectural detail, although other features of the building are not documented in available sources.

The location of this building, in the department of the North ( Hauts-de-France region), is part of an urban district whose history is marked by architectural transformations linked to industrialization and successive reconstructions. Valenciennes, a city with a mining and textile past, thus preserves traces of its built heritage, where facades and entrances to buildings often reflect the styles and techniques of their time. The classified vantals could illustrate local craftsmanship, typical of the 19th or early 20th century, when ornamentation of residential or bourgeois entrances was common.

The sources do not specify the practical information regarding access to or visit to this building. Its heritage interest is currently limited to the legal protection of its doors, without mentioning an opening to the public or a specific cultural vocation. However, the accuracy of its location, assessed as "a priori satisfactory" (note 6/10), allows it to be located with relative accuracy in the Valencian urban fabric.
