The facade on the square and the cover: inscription by decree of 25 October 1937

Origin and history

The house located 1 Place du Huit-Septembre in Besançon (formerly Place Saint-Pierre) dates from the 4th quarter of the 18th century and the 1st quarter of the 19th century. This building, inscribed in the Historical Monuments by order of 25 October 1937, is distinguished by its facade on the square and its cover, protected elements. Its architecture reflects stylistic transitions between the two centuries, typical of the region.

Besançon, then integrated into the Franche-Comté, at that time experienced a period of urban and architectural development. The bourgeois houses, like this one, bear witness to the local economic boom and the influence of neoclassical currents. Their central location, often in public squares, underlines their role in the social and commercial life of the city.

Available data (Monumentum, Merimée database) indicate that the exact address corresponds to the Insee 25056 code in the Doubs department. The GPS location confirms its location in the city centre, although map accuracy is considered poor (note 5/10). No information is provided on its current access (visit, rental, etc.).
