Origin and history

The house at 6 Morel Street in Colmar is an emblematic building of the city, built mainly during the first half of the seventeenth century, with notable modifications during the third quarter of the nineteenth century. This building is distinguished by its architecture, including its 1625 gate, its arcades, and a stair turret that testify to its historical and aesthetic importance. The street façade, arcades, stair turret and gate were listed as historic monuments on June 18, 1929, highlighting their heritage value.

The house is closely linked to Mathias Göcklin, an advisor who resided there. This character has marked local history, although the precise details of his role or influence are not developed in available sources. The building, now owned by a private company, retains architectural elements that reflect the styles and construction techniques of the epochs to which it belongs.

The precise location of the house at 6 Morel Street is confirmed by several sources, including the Merimée database and internal data. The Insee code of the commune, 68066, indicates its membership in the Haut-Rhin department in the Grand Est region. Although access to the public is not clearly mentioned, its status as a historical monument makes it a point of interest for Alsatian architectural heritage enthusiasts.
