Origin and history

This house, located at 5 rue du Mining in La Rochelle, is a building representative of the 17th and 18th centuries. It is distinguished by its arcade, an architectural element protected by a ministerial decree of 27 June 1928, which gives it the status of Historic Monument. The location of this building, in the city centre of La Rochelle, reflects the typical urbanisation of this flourishing port period.

The protection of the arcade in 1928 underscores the heritage importance of this monument, although the information available does not specify its original use or its potential owners. The rue du Mining, where it is located, is characteristic of the ancient urban fabric of La Rochelle, marked by stone constructions and architectural influences linked to maritime commerce.

The current data do not allow a detailed history of this house to be traced, but its inscription as Historic Monuments bears witness to its architectural and historical value. The accuracy of its location is assessed as fair (note 5/10), which may indicate minor uncertainties about its exact location in the archives.
