Timeline

Origin and history

The house at 6 rue de Lusignan in Fougères is a 17th-century civil building. This building, whose only facade is protected (inscription by decree of 17 April 1931), illustrates the city's domestic architectural heritage. Its historic address, formerly associated with Nançon Street, reflects the urban evolutions of Fougères over the centuries.

Classified as a Historical Monument, this house bears witness to construction techniques and decorative styles in vogue in Brittany during the seventeenth century. Although the available sources do not specify its original use, its listing as historic monuments highlights its heritage interest. The location, noted as "passable" (level 5/10), indicates an approximation in the current GPS coordinates.

Fougères, the town of Ille-et-Vilaine in Brittany, was at that time a dynamic urban centre, marked by artisanal and commercial activities. The bourgeois or notable houses, like this one, played a role in the local social and economic organization. Their preservation makes it possible today to study the evolution of lifestyles and urban planning in Brittany.

Available data (Monumentum, Merimée database) also indicate an approximate address from GPS coordinates (4 rue de Lusignan), distinct from the official address. This discrepancy could be explained by urban changes or geolocation errors. No information is provided on any public access or current tourist vocation.
