Origin and history

This house, located on 7 rue de la Manutention in Dijon, is an emblematic building of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, typical of Burgundy civil architecture. It is distinguished by protected elements, including a niche at the corner of the streets of the Manutention and the Faculties, as well as an adorned skylight dated 1580. These details reflect the craftsmanship and stylistic influences of the late Renaissance and early classical period in Burgundy.

Ranked as a Historic Monument, the house was subjected to two successive protections: the niche was registered by arrest on December 30, 1925, while the skylight was protected on March 6, 1950. These measures highlight the heritage value of these elements, which are witnesses to the construction and decoration techniques of their time. Today, the building belongs to a private company, and its current use (visit, rental, accommodation) is not specified in the available sources.

The location of the house in the historic centre of Dijon reinforces its interest. The city, capital of the Dukes of Burgundy, preserves a rich architectural heritage where the old houses alongside major monuments. The accuracy of its location is estimated as "passable" (note 5/10), with approximate GPS coordinates confirming its address on Rue de la Manutention.
