Origin and history
The Maison des Seilhac is a civil building located at 6 rue d'Alverge in Tulle, in the department of Corrèze (New Aquitaine region). Built in the 17th century, it is a typical example of the domestic architecture of this period in the Limousin. Its listing in the inventory of Historic Monuments by order of 27 July 1932 bears witness to its heritage importance and historical value.
The location of the Maison des Seilhac is considered "a priori satisfactory" (note 6/10), according to available data. The exact address, confirmed by the Merimée base and GPS coordinates, places the monument in the heart of Tulle, prefecture city of Corrèze. No additional information is provided regarding its current use (visit, rental, accommodation) or its detailed architectural features.
The 17th century in Limousin, as in other French regions, was marked by a gradual stabilization after the unrest of the religious wars. Bourgeois houses, such as the Maison des Seilhac, often reflect the growing prosperity of local elites, linked to trade, administration or dress. These buildings served both as a residence and as a symbol of social status, while participating in the urban structure of cities like Tulle, then in full development.
