Origin and history

The house located in La Roche-Morey, Burgundy-Franche-Comté, is a 16th century building composed of two distinct bodies. The first, rectangular plan, includes a vaulted basement in a cradle, an elevated ground floor, a floor and an attic. The second, in appentis, includes a basement, a raised ground floor and a high floor. The facade on the street is decorated with bays covered with lintels in accolade, with ground chambranles and prismatic holidays, typical of the architecture of this period.

Inside, several original elements, such as a 16th century stone fireplace, French-style ceilings and old structures, including that of the appentis, which has oak-shaped arches. 18th-century graffiti were also found, adding a trace after the initial construction. The house was listed as a Historic Monument by order of 6 October 2000, emphasizing its heritage importance.

The location of this monument, at 5 Rue de la Chapelotte or rue Haute à La Roche-Morey, is specified in the Mérimée and Monumentum bases. Geographical accuracy is considered satisfactory, and the building now belongs to the municipality. Although its current use (visit, rental, accommodation) is not specified in the sources, its protected status makes it a notable architectural testimony of the Renaissance in Haute-Saône.
