Origin and history

The house at 24 quai Sainte-Catherine in Honfleur is an emblematic building of 16th century civil architecture. This building, whose facades and roofs have been listed as historic monuments since 6 March 1933, bears witness to the built heritage of the Norman port city. Its historic address, formerly referenced under number 77, reflects the urban evolutions of Honfleur over the centuries.

The Quai Sainte-Catherine, where this house stands, is a place full of history, close to the Old Basin, economic and maritime heart of Honfleur since the Middle Ages. The protection of its architectural elements in 1933 underscores its heritage importance, in a context where the preservation of ancient buildings became a national priority. Available sources, such as Wikipedia and Monumentum, confirm its status as a Historic Monument, without further specifying its original use or potential owners.
