Origin and history

This house in La Rochelle, dating from the 17th century, is an example of civil architecture of this period. It is distinguished by its arcade, an element protected and inscribed under the title of Historical Monuments by ministerial decree of 20 June 1928. The building is located at 37 rue Chef-de-Ville, in a historic district of the port city, now integrated into the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region (formerly Poitou-Charentes).

The accuracy of its geographical location is assessed as "passable" (note 5/10), with an address confirmed by the Merimée bases and an approximate correspondence via GPS coordinates (39 Rue Chef de Ville). No information is available on its current use, whether visitation, rental or accommodation. Sources are limited to Monumentum data and internal archives, without details of its social history or occupants.

The classification of 1928 concerns only the arcade, highlighting its heritage interest in an urban context marked by the port and commercial activity of La Rochelle in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. No other protection or specific historical mention is documented in available sources. The lack of details about owners, architects or events related to the building reflects the limitations of accessible archives.
