Origin and history

The house at 13 Chaudrier Street in La Rochelle is an example of the city's traditional civil architecture. It is characterized by its arched porches, an emblematic architectural element often associated with the old houses of the region. These arcades, protected since 1928, bear witness to an urban style unique to La Rochelle, where covered spaces played a practical and aesthetic role in everyday life.

Ranked Historic Monument by decree of 14 June 1928, this house illustrates the attention paid to the local built heritage at the beginning of the 20th century. The inscription specifically concerns its arcades, highlighting their heritage value. The location, in the city centre of La Rochelle, makes it an integral part of the historic urban fabric, although the available sources do not specify its original use or its possible significant occupants.

The accuracy of its geographical location is assessed as poor (note 5/10), which may reflect minor uncertainties about its exact location or subsequent urban developments. The administrative data clearly relate to the commune of La Rochelle, in the Charente-Maritime department, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region.
