Origin and history

The house at 11 Albert I Street in La Rochelle is an 18th-century historical monument. Its facade in coated woollen, organized in three spans, and its posterior garden reflect the domestic architecture of the era. Inside, despite subsequent restructuring, there is a remarkable stone staircase, with a iron railing and a stone-encrypted wall, bearing witness to local craftsmanship.

The house was modified in the 19th century, particularly in terms of its internal organization. It is part of a set of houses lined with arched porches, characteristic of the urban heritage of Rochelais. The arcade of this house was listed as a historic monument by decree of 14 June 1928, highlighting its heritage value. The location of this monument, in the city centre of La Rochelle, makes it a representative element of the city's architectural history.

The available data indicate that the accuracy of its location is considered fair (note of 5/10), and a photo licensed by Creative Commons, by Patrick Despoix, makes it possible to visualize the building. Although practical information about his visit is not specified, his exact address is documented in the Mérimée base, confirming his anchoring in the historical district of La Rochelle.
