Origin and history

The house located at 14 rue Clovis-Hugues (formerly Rue du Roi) in Aix-en-Provence is a building whose door was recognized for its heritage interest. This architectural element has been included in the title of historical monuments since 25 March 1929, by ministerial decree. No additional information is available on its history, owners or construction, but this protection demonstrates its value in the urban landscape of Aix.

Aix-en-Provence, a city marked by a rich medieval and classical past, has many houses and private hotels reflecting architectural developments from the 17th to the 19th centuries. Bourgeois houses, such as the one on Rue Clovis-Hugues, often fit into a dense urban fabric, where facades and details (doors, windows, balconies) reveal the influence of provencal and Italian styles. Their preservation contributes to the collective memory of the city, between aristocratic heritage and daily life.
