Origin and history

The building located at 93 Dauphine Street in Le Havre is a 16th and 17th century monument. Its facades and roofs, protected by a decree of 11 June 1946, illustrate the civil architecture of this period in the Norman region. Although its precise location is estimated as "a priori satisfactory" (note 6/10), it remains a testimony of the urban heritage of Le Havre before the major transformations of the city.

Ranked a Historic Monument, this building is part of a context where Le Havre, a strategic port since the 16th century, has experienced urban development marked by maritime trade and international trade. The buildings of this time often reflect the prosperity of local merchants and shipowners, as well as the influence of popular architectural styles. Their preservation makes it possible today to study the evolution of the Havre urban fabric, between medieval heritage and progressive modernization.
