The facade (Box AA 200): classification by decree of 8 August 1914

Origin and history

The House of Blévy, located in Nogent-le-Roi (Eure-et-Loir), is a 16th century house originally located in Blévy, opposite the church. This historic monument is distinguished by its facade decorated with religious sculptures: Saint-Pierre, a Pietà, and a saint holding a palm. These decorative elements, typical of the Renaissance, underline the artistic and religious importance of the building to the local community.

The beams under the roof of the House of Blévy are decorated with three grotesque figures, an architectural pattern common at that time, mixing medieval and renaissant influences. The façade was classified as Historic Monument by decree of August 8, 1914, thus recognizing its heritage value. Today, the exact address is 47 Faubourg Valmorin, although its initial location in Blévy is clearly attested in historical sources.

The accuracy of the current location is considered satisfactory, with a score of 7 out of 10, based on available data. The building, although protected, does not have accurate information in the sources consulted about its current use (visit, rental, etc.). Its architecture and carved decorations make it a rare testimony to the civilian habitat of the 16th century in the Centre-Val de Loire region.
