Origin and history

The house located at 14 quai Saint-Nicolas in Strasbourg is a historic monument inscribed since 1929. This building, located in the department of Bas-Rhin, illustrates the architectural heritage of the city, although its detailed history and exact construction period are not specified in the available sources.

The inscription in the title of historical monuments, effective by decree of 18 June 1929, relates specifically to the facade and roof of the building. This protection reflects the heritage importance of the house, typical of the civil buildings of Strasbourg, without the documents consulted mentioning events or characters related to its history.

Strasbourg, the emblematic city of the Grand Est region, has had a rich urban history, marked by both French and Germanic influences. The houses of this time, often aligned along the docks or in the historic centre, served as housing for local merchants, artisans or bourgeois. Their preservation allows today to bear witness to the ways of life and the techniques of construction of past centuries.
