Arcade: registration by decree of 29 September 1928

Origin and history

The house at 21 rue Saint-Jean in La Rochelle is a historic monument whose remarkable element is an arcade. This building was partially protected by an inscription under the Historical Monuments, formalized by an order dated 29 September 1928. No further information on its architecture or history is specified in available sources.

La Rochelle, the major port city of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region (formerly Poitou-Charentes), has had a rich urban history, marked by its commercial and maritime role since the Middle Ages. Old houses, such as the one on Rue Saint-Jean, often bear witness to this blissful period, when bourgeois or artisanal houses punctuated the urban fabric. Their preservation, even partial, offers an overview of the architectural and social evolution of the city, although the specific details of this monument remain limited in the accessible archives.
