Facade and roof: inscription by order of 1 February 1934
Origin and history
The building located in Avignon, in the department of Vaucluse (region Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur), is a historical monument whose remarkable elements – facade and roof – were inscribed by ministerial decree on 1 February 1934. This building, which is now extinct, was located at the 15th wharf of the Line, an address close to the old city walls. Its destruction took place during the operations to clear these fortifications, changing the urban landscape in Avignon.
Available data indicate an approximate location, with an accuracy considered fair (note 5/10), suggesting uncertainties about its exact location after its disappearance. The archives also mention an alternative GPS address at 58 Boulevard de la Ligne, possibly reflecting later geolocation errors. No information specifies its original use, its detailed architecture, or the exact circumstances of its destruction, apart from the work on the ramparts.
The 1934 classification underlines the heritage importance of this building, despite its later condition. The sources (Monumentum, Merimée base) do not provide elements on any restorations, notable owners, or significant events being carried out there. Its history thus boils down to late protection, followed by a disappearance linked to major urban developments.
