Origin and history
The house at 26 rue du Petit-Cloître in Langres is a civilian building dating from the 1st quarter of the 16th century. It is distinguished by its scauguette, an architectural element typical of the period, which led to its inscription under the title of Historical Monuments by decree of 23 December 1925. This type of construction reflects the urban architecture of the Renaissance in Champagne-Ardenne, a region now integrated into the Great East.
The location of this monument, although documented (exact address and GPS coordinates available), is considered fair accuracy (note 5/10) according to the criteria of the Merimée base. The building, identified under the code Insee 52269, belongs to the commune of Langres, in the department of Haute-Marne. No information is provided on its current use (visit, rental, accommodation) or on any historic owners or sponsors.
Available sources (Monumentum, internal data) do not mention any detailed construction context, associated characters, or major transformations after its initial construction period. However, the only protected part of the logger illustrates the importance attached to defensive or monitoring elements in the urban habitat of the time, even for residential buildings.
