Origin and history

The building located 2 rue Jeanne-d'Arc in Orléans is a monument listed in the inventory of Historic Monuments. Its classification, which came into effect on 23 January 1945, specifically concerns its façade and roof, which are considered representative of the city's architectural heritage. Although the details of its history or its architect remain absent from available sources, this official protection underscores its importance in the Orléan urban landscape.

Orléans, the capital of the Loiret department in the Centre-Val de Loire region, underwent a gradual reconstruction and modernization during the 20th century. The buildings of this period, often characterized by neat facades, reflect the architectural and social changes of the period. This type of building, although less publicized than the medieval monuments of the city, contributes to the collective memory and identity of the city centre.

Their preservation keeps a tangible record of lifestyles and construction techniques of their time.
