Arcade on Rue Pernelle: registration by decree of 29 September 1928
Origin and history
This house, located at 10 rue Eugène-Fromentin in La Rochelle, is a monument listed in the inventory of Historic Monuments. Its remarkable element is an arcade overlooking Pernelle Street, protected by ministerial decree since 1928. The building illustrates local civil architecture, although its detailed history and exact construction period remain undocumented in available sources.
La Rochelle, the major historic port of the Atlantic facade, experienced a marked urban boom between the Middle Ages and the modern era. Bourgeois houses and commercial buildings, like this home, reflect the importance of maritime trade and trading in the region. Their preservation reflects the evolution of the urban fabric and architectural practices in Charente-Maritime, now integrated into New Aquitaine.
