Origin and history
The houses of 112, 116 and 118 rue Henri-Cheron are three buildings located in Lisieux, Calvados, Normandy. Built in wooden panels, they illustrate 16th century civil architecture. Their style, characteristic of the half-timbered houses of that time, reflects local construction techniques and late medieval urban planning.
These houses are located 400 metres west of St. Peter's Cathedral, near the Touques River. Their location in the historic centre of Lisieux highlights their integration into an ancient urban fabric, marked by the proximity of a major religious building. Their protection under the Historic Monuments, which took place in 1931, aims to preserve this architectural heritage.
The facades and roofs of the three houses were inscribed by ministerial decree: those of 116 and 118 rue Henri-Cheron on 15 October 1931, and that of 112 on 20 November 1931. These inscriptions reflect the desire to retain representative examples of Norman habitat from the 16th century, while highlighting their role in the urban history of Lisieux.
