Facades and roofs (Case F 1257): inscription by decree of 21 July 1970
Origin and history
The 18th century house in Rabastens, Tarn, is a typical example of civil architecture in the 2nd half of the 18th century. This monument is distinguished by its central body framed by two wings, a composition characteristic of bourgeois houses of the era. The main facade, made of stone, is enhanced by a base and a brick cornice, while the lateral wings are entirely constructed of brick, illustrating a mixture of materials common in the area.
Classified as a Historic Monument, this house was partially protected by decree of 21 July 1970, covering specifically its facades and roofs. Its official address, 2 avenue de Toulouse, places the building in the heart of Rabastens, a commune of Tarn (Department 81) in Occitanie. Although the sources do not specify its current use, its architectural style and inscription reflect its local heritage importance.
The location of the house, noted as "passable" (level 5/10) in the databases, suggests an approximate but sufficient identification to situate the monument in its urban context. Available data from Monumentum and the Merimée archives confirm its status as a remarkable element of Rabastens' built heritage, without providing more details on its history or past occupants.
