Door on street, including vantals: registration by order of 14 June 1934
Origin and history
The building at 14 rue de la Corderie in Meaux (Seine-et-Marne) is a monument listed in the inventory of Historic Monuments. Its protected element, the street door including its vantals, was officially registered by ministerial decree on 14 June 1934. This protection reflects the heritage value of this building, although the broader architectural or historical details are not specified in the available sources.
The location of the building, in the city centre of Meaux, suggests an integration into an ancient urban fabric, marked by streets with evocative denominations such as the Rue de la Corderie, reminiscent of past artisanal activities. The city, the capital of the borough of Île-de-France, experienced significant urban development, particularly in the 19th and 20th centuries, during which many bourgeois or commercial buildings were built or renovated.
The available data do not allow the precise date of construction of the building, nor the identification of its architect or historic owners. However, the 1934 inscription indicates that the authorities recognized the aesthetic or historical quality of its door, a common architectural feature in the buildings of the French city centres of that time. The lack of information on its current use (housing, commerce, etc.) or accessibility limits the understanding of its contemporary role.
The Île-de-France region, and especially the city of Meaux, has been a crossroads of economic and cultural exchanges since the Middle Ages. Buildings like this, often built or modified between the 18th and 20th centuries, reflect changes in urban lifestyles, from local crafts to residential or commercial functions. Their preservation contributes to the collective memory and architectural identity of the city.
