Facades on street and corresponding roofs: inscription by decree of 5 March 1962

Origin and history

The buildings at numbers 8, 10 and 12 of Rue Saint-Romain in Rouen are a remarkable architectural complex. These buildings, whose street façades and corresponding roofs are protected by a registration order of 5 March 1962, bear witness to the city's urban heritage. Their precise location, although noted as "a priori satisfactory" (level 6/10), remains a point of interest for studies on the development of Rouen.

Rouen, the emblematic city of Normandy, has had a rich urban history, marked by various constructions reflecting successive epochs. The buildings on Rue Saint-Romain are in this context, although their exact construction period is not specified in the available sources. Their protection in 1962 underlines their heritage value, typical of the efforts to preserve the twentieth century in France.

These buildings, although not open to the visit, participate in the architectural identity of the city, alongside other older or more famous historical monuments.
