Origin and history

The house at 5 rue des Hallebardes in Strasbourg, in the Bas-Rhin department, is a historical monument built over the 17th and 18th centuries. It is distinguished by its facade and roof, protected by a classification order dated 23 January 1928. This building, also accessible by 24 rue des Orfèvres, embodies the civil architectural heritage of Strasbourg, marked by stylistic influences peculiar to Alsace of the modern era.

The 1928 classification specifically concerns the facade and roof, highlighting their heritage value. Although the sources mention its status as a historical monument, they do not specify the sponsors or architects involved in its construction. The exact location, confirmed by the Merimée bases and GPS coordinates, places this building in the heart of the historic centre of Strasbourg, an area rich in protected buildings.

Strasbourg, the major city of the Great East, experienced during the 17th and 18th centuries a period of intense urban and commercial development, notably under French influence after the annexation of Alsace in 1681. The houses of this time often reflect the prosperity of local artisans and merchants, as evidenced by the addresses adjacent to Rue des Orfèvres, a historic axis dedicated to the crafts of goldsmiths. This type of building served as both a dwelling, a workshop and a place of commerce, playing a central role in the economic and social life of the city.
