Façade, with the exception of the shop: registration by order of 28 October 1949

Origin and history

The building at 52 rue des Fourbisseurs in Avignon is a civil building dating from the 18th century. It has been classified as a Historic Monument, with specific protection for its façade, with the exception of the shop on the ground floor. This official recognition was granted by a ministerial decree in 1949, emphasizing its heritage interest in the Avignon urban fabric.

The location of this building, in the historic centre of Avignon, reflects the importance of this city as an economic and cultural hub in Provence in the 18th century. The facades of the buildings of that time often reflect the evolution of architectural styles, mixing classical and local influences. Although details of its occupants or its original function are not specified, its listing as Historic Monuments makes it a significant part of the region's built heritage.

Available data indicate that the accuracy of its location is considered poor (note 5/10), which may reflect uncertainties about its exact location or discrepancies between the recorded addresses. The official address in the Merimée base (52 rue des Fourbisseurs) differs slightly from that in GPS coordinates (56 rue des Fourbisseurs), a common disparity in heritage databases. No information is provided on its current accessibility or possible tourist vocation.
