Origin and history

The house located Place du Marché in Taninges is a building dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries. This monument, inscribed in the Historical Monuments by order of 24 June 1977, is distinguished by its facades and roofs on street, which constitute the protected elements. The precise location of this building, although noted as "passable" (level 5/10), remains a central point in the urban fabric of Taninges, in Haute-Savoie.

The houses of this period in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes often reflect the typical civil architecture of the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance. They generally served as housing for wealthy families, artisans or merchants, playing a key role in the economic and social life of the towns. Their preservation makes it possible today to understand the evolution of the construction techniques and lifestyles of the period, although the sources available for this specific house remain limited to the administrative and descriptive data of the Merimée database.
