Origin and history

The House Bucheron is an emblematic building located in the town of Amance, in Haute-Saône, in the Burgundy-Franche-Comté region. Built mainly in the 16th and 18th centuries, it consists of a house dating from the 16th century and outbuildings added to the 18th century. This monument illustrates the architectural evolution of bourgeois or rural houses in this region, mixing defensive elements like a rotula murderer with later structures.

By order of 8 August 1991, the House of Bucheron was classified and registered as historical monuments. The classification concerns the main dwelling (cadastre B 174, 175), while the inscription covers the facades and roofs of the outbuildings (cadastre B 171, 172, 548), as well as a murderer located near the cochère door. These measures highlight its historic importance and remarkable conservation status for the period.

Located at 52 Grande Rue in Amance, this house is part of an urban fabric typical of the villages of Haute-Saône. Its exact address, referenced in the Mérimée base, confirms its anchoring in the historic centre of the village. Although the sources do not specify its current use (visit, rental, housing), its status as a historical monument makes it a privileged witness to local history, reflecting the lifestyles and construction techniques of late and modern medieval times.
