Origin and history

The house of the 6 road of Trun, located in Falaise in the department of Calvados, is an emblematic building of the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. It is 150 metres east of the Church of Notre-Dame de Guibray, in a historical area. This building illustrates the architectural evolution between the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, with characteristic elements of these two epochs.

The building was listed as a Historic Monument on August 19, 1975, recognizing its heritage value. The protections specifically concern facades and roofs, as specified in the registration order. This house is a testimony of Norman civilian habitat, reflecting the lifestyles and construction techniques of the eras concerned.

The precise location of the house, on the road to Trun, is confirmed by the official sources, 6 including the Merimée base. The Insee code of the commune, 14258, links Falaise to the department of Calvados, in the Normandy region. Although the information on its current use (visit, rental) is not detailed, its status as a Historic Monument makes it a point of interest for the local heritage.
