Origin and history

The House of the Governor of Lusignan is a historic monument located in the commune of Lusignan, New Aquitaine. Built in the 17th century, it is distinguished by its emblematic architecture of this period, with a facade on street classified by ministerial decree. The building has been listed as a Historic Monument since 1935, highlighting its heritage importance.

The exact address of this monument, 25 rue Saint-Louis, is referenced in the Mérimée base, confirming its anchoring in the urban fabric of Lusignan. Although the available sources do not specify its original use, its name refers to a function related to the local authority, typical of the houses of governors of the Ancien Régime. The location, noted as "passable" (5/10), suggests an approximation in the current GPS coordinates.

The classification of the façade in 1935 protects an architectural element representative of the seventeenth century, a period marked by the emergence of Baroque and classical styles in France. No information is available on successive owners, major changes or contemporary uses (visit, accommodation). The data are mainly from the Monumentum database and the Merimée archives.
