Facade and arcade: inscription by order of 20 June 1928

Origin and history

The house at 13 rue Dupaty in La Rochelle is a 18th-century civil building. This monument, whose location is estimated to be fair (note 5/10), is representative of the urban architecture of that time in a port city in full commercial growth. The facade and arcade of this house were inscribed as a Historic Monument by order of 20 June 1928, highlighting their heritage value.

In the 18th century, La Rochelle was a dynamic city, marked by its maritime and commercial activities. The bourgeois houses, like this one, reflected the prosperity of local traders and shipowners. These buildings served as both a residence and a place of social representation, embodying the status of their owners in a hierarchical society.

The partial inscription of this monument demonstrates the importance attached to the preservation of the emblematic architectural elements of this period.
