Origin and history

The buildings at 22 and 24 of the Place Nationale in Dieppe (Seine-Maritime) constitute a remarkable architectural complex, classified as Historic Monument. Their protection specifically concerns brick facades and roofs, officially listed by ministerial decree in 1939. These buildings illustrate the Dieppois urban heritage, marked by the use of local materials such as brick, typical of the region.

The location of these buildings in the city centre suggests their role in the social and economic life of Dieppe, a Norman historic port. Their preservation reflects a desire to preserve the architectural character of the Place Nationale, an emblematic area of the municipality. Although sources do not specify their original use, their style and location indicate a likely residential or commercial function, common in harbour cities at the turn of the 20th century.

Available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum highlight the heritage importance of these buildings, while noting a GPS location deemed "satisfactory" (note 7/10). No information is provided on their current accessibility, contemporary use, or possible historical characters related to their construction or occupation.
